Abstract
Reminiscence values obtained from 84 subjects on two tracking tasks were examined for their dependence upon sex, task, task order, and repeated measurement within tasks. Females reminisced more than males on both tasks, while task differences were significant only for males. These effects (a) show that reminiscence is a more complexly determined phenomenon than most writers have assumed, and (b) argue for a broadcast empirical examination of other possible dependencies.Keywords
