perspective change - Abstract:
- The relationship between gender differences and perspective change in searching a pair of images was examined in an experiment on gender differences in intrinsic orientation and viewpoint. Participants found the differences in twelve pairs of various gender stereotyped scenes. I predicted that both males and females would take longer to find the differences when there was a perspective change in the pair of images they were looking at. Additionally, I predicted that males would find differences more quickly in scenes that depicted masculine objects. On the other hand, I predicted that females would find differences more quickly in scenes that depicted feminine objects. Results suggest that perspective change and gender differences do influence the difficulty of a “find the differences” task.
