This paper shows graphically that there is a significant sex difference in regard to credulity as expressed in the attitudes of the sexes towards fortune-telling activities. It suggests that this sex difference may be due in part to woman's relatively great emotionality or to her restrictions. These forces may cause her more frequently than man to fall back upon feeling for guidance. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
