Abstract
The current study examined sex differences in object and spatial memory in college age students. It is hypothesized that there would be a female advantage in the object memory task and a male advantage in the spatial memory task. The object array task (Levy et al., 2005) was utilized to measure object memory, and the Vandenberg 3D Mental Rotation Task (Vandenberg and Kuse, 1978) was utilized to measure spatial memory. Contrary to previous studies, this study found no evidence supporting a sex difference in either task. There were nearly three times as many females than males who participated in this study, which might have impacted the validity of the statistical analyses.
