Doreen Kimura's matching game

The object of the game is to correctly match up the picture on the left to one of the pictures on the right.  Click on the picture that most resembles the one on the left as fast as you can.  Pictures keep coming. You have 35 seconds to complete them all. Don't worry if you cannot finish them all.

On average, women do better at this identity matching test because women are better at matching objects based on their surroundings.

Men are better at matching images that require a mental rotation of the image to make the match.

Do an experiment note the scores of 10 or 20 female subjects. Then note the scores of 10 or 20 male subjects. Find the average score for women, and compare it to the average score for men.

Your score depends on how long you take and how many you get right. At the end of the game youÕll see your score.
