“…Women typically perform better than men on episodic memory tasks of verbal stimuli (Gur & Gur, 2002; Herlitz, Nilsson, & Bäckman, 1997; Ragland, Coleman, Gur, Glahn, & Gur, 2000), whereas men tend perform better than women on visuospatial memory tasks (De Frias, Nilsson, & Herlitz, 2006; Weiss, Kemmler, Deisenhammer, Fleischhacker, & Delazer, 2003). However, these sex differences have small to medium effect sizes and are stable across the adult lifespan (Asperholm, Van Leuven, & Herlitz, 2020; De Frias et al, 2006; Jack et al, 2015; Voyer, Postma, Brake, & Imperato-McGinley, 2007). This may account for the few studies investigating sex differences in age effects on memory and associated brain activity and connectivity.…”
