Effect of visual cues with the WAIS--R Digit Span subtest.
The WAIS-R Digit Span subtest was administered to 43 women and 31 men, ages 18 or 19 years, under standard conditions (examiner facing the person) and with the examiner sitting behind the person to eliminate possible visual cues as the examiner read the numbers. Analysis of variance of the total digits recalled indicated no differences between the sexes or between the two methods of presentation.
