We gave 51 male and 52 female Air Force Academy Cadets a battery of five cognitive and three perceptual motor tests before they were taught four basic flight maneuvers followed by a complex chandelle maneuver. The results showed that the males were much faster in attaining the criterion level of performance on the flight tasks, and that some of the sex differences in the acquisition of task skills can be reduced by means of pretraining on specific cognitive and motor skills. In the prediction of trials to criterion (acquisition rate) of both the basic and the complex flight maneuvers, individually tailoring the regression equations by sex--as opposed to utilizing general overall regression equations--greatly enhanced the predictive capability.
我们对51名男性和52名女性空军学院学员进行了一系列包含五项认知测试和三项感知运动测试，之后教他们四种基本飞行机动动作，接着是复杂的急跃升转弯机动动作。结果显示，男性在达到飞行任务的标准绩效水平方面速度要快得多，并且通过对特定认知和运动技能进行预训练，在任务技能习得方面的一些性别差异可以得到减少。在预测基本和复杂飞行机动动作达到标准（习得率）所需的试验次数时，按性别单独定制回归方程——与使用通用的总体回归方程相反——大大提高了预测能力。
