“…Gender differences have been observed in both functional and anatomic studies of the human brain. Ray and colleagues (1976) noted sex differences in EEGs, and differences in evoked potentials were observed by Gale et al (1978). Recent investigations of cerebral blood flow (CBF) using xenon-133 inhalation and SPECT also have elicited gender differences, with women exhibiting a 15-20% higher rate of CBF, at rest or with cognitive activation.…”

“…Entre elas encontram-se o uso de um modo mais conservador de resposta pelas mulheres (BRADY, 1996;WILLIAMS &JASIEWICZ, 2001) e a intervenção de fatores sócioculturais (WRISBERG, PAUL & RAGSDALE, 1979). Para além destas, outras ideias têm sido propostas, indicando que as diferenças entre os sexos se devem a estratégias de atenção diferenciadas, como resultado do processamento diferencial hemisférico na visualização de um estímulo em aparente movimento (ANDREASSI &JUSZCZAK, 1982;GALE, BROWN, OSBORNE & SMALLBONE, 1978).…”

“…The higher dynamic visual acuity threshold for boys than for girls is consistent with prior research (Burg & Hulbert, 1961;Cratty, el al., 1974;Ishigaki & Miyao, 1994). Gale, Brown, Osborne, and Smallbone (1978) suggested differences in dynamic visual acuity by sex are due to differential EEG activation as a moving object is observed. These differences in activation pattern between sexes were assumed to result from focusing on different aspects of a moving target.…”
