The study investigated the effects of orienting instructions, monetary incentives, and sex of the listener on performance on a test of listening comprehension. Neither orienting instructions nor monetary incentives resulted in significant differences, but undergraduate men (n = 64) scored significantly higher than the women (n = 56) on the listening comprehension test.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
