Goldberg is pretty explicit. He suggests that only men are lateralised on
his task and has studied this in neuropsych populations. His idea is that
the context-dependent left hemisphere/context-invariant right hemisphere
dichotomoy doesn't hold in grousp with two X chromosomes.
Will let you all know how a (modest size) study I am doing on this turns
out.
best wishes,
