  • Sex Differences in Mental Rotation and Spatial Visualization Ability: Can They Be Accounted for by Differences in Working Memory Capacity? ⁎ Scott Barry Kaufman
    Intelligence 35 (2007) 211–223 Sex differences in mental rotation and spatial visualization ability: Can they be accounted for by differences in working memory capacity? ⁎ Scott Barry Kaufman University of Cambridge, England and Yale University, United States Received 11 July 2005; received in revised form 30 June 2006; accepted 15 July 2006 Available online 11 September 2006 Abstract Sex differences in spatial ability are well documented, but poorly understood. In order to see whether working memory is an important factor in these differences, 50 males and 50 females performed tests of three-dimensional mental rotation and spatial visualization, along with tests of spatial and verbal working memory. Substantial differences were found on all spatial ability and spatial working memory tests (that included both a spatial and verbal processing component). No significant differences were found in spatial short-term memory or verbal working memory. In addition, spatial working memory completely mediated the relationship between sex and spatial ability, but there was also a direct effect of sex on the unique variance in three-dimensional rotation ability, and this effect was not mediated by spatial working memory. Results are discussed in the context of research on working memory and intelligence in general, and sex differences in spatial ability more specifically. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

COWEN Professor of Comparative Law, University of Cape Town I Second Impression DELIVERED UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE SOUTH AFRICANINSTITUTEOFRACERELATIONSP.O.Box 97 Johannesburg THE ALFRED AND WINIFRED HOERNLF, MEMORIAL LECTURE A LECTURE entitled the Alfred and Winifred Hoernk Memorial Lecture (in memory of the late Professor R. F. Alfred Hoernl6, President of the South African Institute of Race Relations from 1934 to 1943 and of his wife, the late Winifred Hoernle, President of the Institute from 1948 to 1950, and again from 1953 to 1954), is delivered once a year under the auspices of the Institute. An invitation to deliver the lecture is extended each year to some person having special knowledge and experience of racial problems in Africa and elsewhere. It is hoped that the Hoernl Memorial Lecture provides a platform for constructive and helpful contributions to thought and action. While the lecturers are entirely free to express their own views, which may not be those of the Institute as expressed in its formal decisions, it is hoped that lecturers will be guided by the Institute's declaration of policy that "scientific study and research must be allied with the fullest recognition of the human reactions to changing racial situations; that respectful regard must be paid to the traditions and usages of various national, racial and tribal groups which comprise the population; and that due account must be taken of opposing views earnestly held". Previous lecturers have been the Rt. Hon. J. H.

It was nice to hear from everyone and I learned a lot about each of you, but more so, about the department. Overwhelmingly, people had positive things to say about being part of our department. That is not to say that things couldn’t be better and I also heard many suggestions for improvements. We will have a chance to discuss these as part of strategies for moving forward at the retreat on June 17.
