title: [Sex differences in memorizing dichotically presented word lists].
abstract: Lists of 10 pairs of words containing emotionally significant words at the fourth position were administered dichotically. Emotional words were presented whether unilaterally (in a pair with a neutral word) or bilaterally to the subjects of both sexes. There were no sex differences in immediate a written reproduction of both the neutral and emotional words. Unexpected reproduction of the all lists at the end of an experiment was better in women regarding the emotional words heard from the left ear and the neutral words independently of a side of presentation. Sex differences in strategies of memorizing suggest a wider participation of the right-hemispheric ways of information processing in providing some forms of verbal activity in women.
