The present study looks beyond sex differences and considers the association of self-perceived gender trait possession with performance in two visuo-spatial tasks. The findings indicate that, in a 3-D mental rotation task, where a substantial sex difference occurred, gender trait

Combined spatial score
A final analysis was made with the S & M and GEFT scores combined. Each of the predictor variables identified above were employed in the stepwise regression and the criterion was the combined standardized scores from the S & M and GEFT performances.
The model produced an F(4,122) = 6.52, with p
