Abstract
Spets and Slotnick present a meta-analysis on long-term memory and sex differences. Overall findings indicate greater brain activation in men than women during memory performance. Merits of the activation likelihood estimation meta-analysis include considering study parameters and equating performance to enhance interpretability of activation differences. Variables and concepts relevant to memory and sex differences research also are discussed. As memory is essential for survival, characterizing neurobiological profiles, parsing sex and gender, will help broaden the field of long-term memory and sex differences research.
期刊介绍：
Cognitive Neuroscience publishes high quality discussion papers and empirical papers on any topic in the field of cognitive neuroscience including perception, attention, memory, language, action, social cognition, and executive function. The journal covers findings based on a variety of techniques such as fMRI, ERPs, MEG, TMS, and focal lesion studies. Contributions that employ or discuss multiple techniques to shed light on the spatial-temporal brain mechanisms underlying a cognitive process are encouraged.
