I'm not sure where you will find empirical support for this one. Are you telling me that the blokes in operational roles in a Black Saturday for example don't have multiple goals and tasks to achieve?. Neuropsych bases for gender differences aside, my point still stands. Cognitively speaking there is no such thing as 'multi-tasking', it is merely re-directing attention.
Of Course i'm not saying these men were not carrying out many tasks and goals.....
It's the gender specific ways in which the brain carries out these tasks which interests me. The difference in order and what part of the brain is firing at what point.
Maybe this redirection helps women carry out many many tasks at once or maybe Redirection is the same as multi-tasking....either way it comes natural to a woman to have many things going at once (maybe jims nurture theory) and natural to a man to have a sole focus. We can call it what we want I spose
