Sex differences on language and visuospatial tasks are of great interest, with differences in
hemispheric laterality hypothesized to exist between males and females. Some functional
imaging studies examining sex differences have shown that males are more left lateralized
on language tasks and females are more right lateralized on visuospatial tasks; however,
findings are inconsistent. Here we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study
thirty participants, matched on task performance, during phonological and visuospatial tasks …
