  • Title: Sex differences on the Chinese standardization sample of the WAIS-R.
    Author: Lynn R, Dai XY.
    Journal: J Genet Psychol; 1993 Dec; 154(4):459-63. PubMed ID: 8176389.
    Abstract:
    The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) has been adapted with minor revisions for use in China and standardized on a sample of 179 adults. Sex differences on the subtests are similar to those in the United States, with women obtaining higher means on the Digit Symbol subtest and men obtaining higher means on the Information and Arithmetic subtests. Men obtained higher verbal, performance, and full-scale IQs in China. The factor structure of the Chinese WAIS-R also is similar to those obtained on the Wechsler tests in the United States and Scotland.
