Sex differences in dichotic listening among Asian Americans.
Dichotic-listening tests were conducted with 23 male and 23 female Asian-American college students. The mean correct responses for the men were right ear 54.7 and left ear 48.7, whereas the mean correct for the women were for the right ear 53.4 and the left ear 54.8. Among the men 60.9% did better with the right ear than with the left, while 43.5% of the women showed a right-ear superiority. The male-female differences, however, did not reach statistical significance. Clearly, larger samples are needed.
