| dc.description.abstract | This study examines sex differences on SPOT-THE-WORD TEST, (STWT) onfee recall. Thirty boys (males) and30girls (females) were given 30 pairs ofwords. The first sets ofwords were written in correct English while the second sets were nonsense syllables. The students studied the pairs of words for five minutes after which they were to recall the words they have learnt. The hypothesis was that girls (females) will recall more words than boys (males). The results which were analysed by independent t test did not show any significant difference between the two sexes. These findings may be due to the fact that the same educational level (all subjects were drawn from level three psychology students) may have affected the performances of subjects on this test. The conclusion was that despite the fact that there was no statistical difference between the two sexes, this technique offers strong hope for use in education, commerce and clinical settings. | |
