American Educational Research Journal Winter 1983, Vol. 20, No. 4, Pp. 469-573 CAMILLA PERSSON BENBOW and JULIAN C. STANLEY The Johns Hopkins University In 1980 we published a report in Science which showed that differential course-taking does not account for the large sex differences in mathematical reasoning ability found among intellectually talented seventh graders. Pallas and Alexander (1983) have recently claimed that our original paper did not make clear our intention to focus on mathematical reasoning ability rather than other features of quantitative ability. We wish to point out that the abstract ("A substantial difference in mathematical reasoning ability .. . in favor of boys was found"), the first paragraph (three times), the methods section ("the mathematical section [of the SAT-M] is partic ularly designed to measure mathematical reasoning ability"), the main conclusion ("Moreover, the greatest disparity between the boys and girls is in the upper ranges of mathematical reasoning ability"), the lead paragraph of the discussion ("It is notable that we observed sizable sex differences in mathematical reasoning ability in seventh grade students"), and numerous places elsewhere throughout the paper explicitly employ the phrase math ematical reasoning ability. It is, therefore, understandable that we are puzzled by how
