“…It can be speculated that males and females differ in their early stages of information processing that include visual sensory and perceptual operations, with no regard to the emotional content of the stimuli. This may be only true for visual stimuli, as for auditory stimuli no gender related differences in the evoked gamma response were observed (Karakaş et al, 2006). This finding is in concordance with findings on the behavioral level indicating a female superiority in perceptual speed, the ability to rapidly absorb the details of a visual stimulus, which has been recognized since the 1940s (e.g., Harshman, Hampson, & Berenbaum, 1983;Kim & Petrakis, 1998;Tyler, 1965;Wesman, 1949) and generalizes to many types of visual stimuli.…”
