Benedetto, Joanne M., Harris, Wayne C. and Goernert, Phillip N. (1995): Assessing Gender Differences and Norm Data on a Cognitive Performance Measure. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. p. 968.

“An individual's cognitive effectiveness directly effects their decision making ability, thus effecting their performance. Therefore an important aspect for assessing fitness for duty is determining cognitive effectiveness. Reeves, Winter, LaCour, Raynsfor, Vogel, and Grissett (1991) designed a cognitive assessment measure, the Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics version 3 (ANAM3), for assessing fitness for duty in individuals with an intellectual functioning ranging from superior to moderately impaired. The ANAM3 battery contains eight subscales for assessing cognitive abilities. The current research collected male and female normative data for ANAM3; specifically, the number of trials required to reach the learning asymptote for each subscale. The participants all reached the learning curve asymptote by the third trial for all subscales. Additionally, across all subscales women performed better than men, four of which were significant: Memory Search (6 items), Spatial Processing, Procedural Reaction Time, Two-Choice Reaction Time. An explanation for the gender difference is provided.”
