This study examined the effects of sex and age on scores on a matrices test among university and college students aged 17 to 51 yr. Sex differences in mean scores were nonsignificant. The general decline with age was linear and negative, significantly so for women (n = 132), not for men (n = 74). Significant decrements occurred from the age of 26 yr. upwards for women only. The findings suggest that loss of intellectual capacity on the Raven's Matrices can be attributed to age.
本研究调查了性别和年龄对17至51岁大学生矩阵测试分数的影响。平均分数的性别差异不显著。随着年龄增长的总体下降呈线性且为负向，女性（n = 132）的情况显著，男性（n = 74）则不然。仅女性从26岁及以上出现显著下降。研究结果表明，瑞文推理测验中智力能力的丧失可归因于年龄。
