Cognitive sex differences have been demonstrated in humans: men usually outperform women on spatial ability (Linn & Peterson, 1985; Gladue et al., 1990; Mann et al., 1990; Gouchie & Kimura, 1991; Gladue & Bailey, 1995; Halpern & Tan, 2001; Tan et al., 2003a, b; Herlitz & Lovén, 2009); women outperform men on verbal tasks (Hyde & Linn, 1988; Mann et al., 1990; Halpern & Tan, 2001; Tan et al., 20...

Motoo Kimura (1983:xiv) The Neutral Theory of Molecular Evolution The richness of stone raw material types in an archaeological assemblage, the geographic distances over which those materials were transported, and the technological forms in which they were transported have provided empirical benchmarks for inferring the organization of Paleolithic adaptive strategies (FéblotA NEUTRAL MODEL OF S...

In this paper, the behavior of a continuous flow in the vicinity of a closed positively .invariant subset in a metric space is investigated. The main theorem in this part in some sense generalizes previous results concerning classification of the flow near a compact invariant set in a locally compact metric space which was described by Ura-Kimura (1960) and Bhatia (1969). By applying the obtain...
