Continued from our previous report (1980), word association responces for 19 adjective words and 17 verb words were analyzed for sex differences. Each word was given orally at every class and subjects (about 1600 primary school children-1st to 6 th grade-and 260 pupils of lower secondary schools-2nd grade-) gave two different word responces. As well as in the previous report, generally the larger commonality was found in female responses: for verb stimulus, female subjects gave significantly higher percentages in popular responces than male subjects, but for adjective stimulus the same clear tendency was not found. Sex differences in paradigmatic responces were confirmed: male subjects tended to give more paradigmatic responces for noun, adjective and verb stimulus than female subjects. Contents of responces were also different in both sexes.
