BALTIMORE - A Johns Hopkins
University researcher has found a
possible scientific basis for so-called
feminine intuition.
Dr. Judith Hall, an assistant pro
fessor of psychology, said her
studies have shown women to be
superior to men in non-verbal
communication.
Based on. testing and review of
studies in the same field. Hall found
that in 51 of 61 studies, involving
more than 10,000 people, women
perform better than men in inter
preting non-verbal cues conveyed
through facial expressions, tone and
rhythm of voice, body gestures and
posture.
Hall developed a test in which
more than 200 non-verbal cues are
presented in brief segments in a film
and subjects are asked to decide
whether the sender of the cues —
who is Hall herself — is behaving
dominantly or submissively.
In more than 75 percent of the
tests, females scored higher than
males.
The sex and age of the cue sender
was irrelevant.
The age of the female subjects
also made no difference; elementary
school female students scored
higher than their male counterparts
to the same degree as adult women

achieved better scores than adult
men.
‘‘This raises all kinds of intriguing
questions,” Hall said. “Why are
women more sensitive to non-verbal
communication than men? Is it ge
netic or does it come as a result of
social pressures that women have
been subjected to more so than
men? What will be the efiect of the
current feminist movement on wo
men’s superiority in this area?”
She is continuing her studies to
try to find answers to these ques
tions.
Women are often thought of as
being more empathetic and more
sensitive than men. This might be
considered part of intuition but Hall
said that term is scientifically use
less.
She said, however, that a better
understanding of non-verbal com
munication will add to knowledge of
personal relationships and cultural
differences.
“A lot of the implicit understand
ing of what happens in a relationship
is not a matter of what people say to
each other,” she said. “It’s how they
say it, how they use their voice,
where they direct their eyes, and
the distance they put between out
another.”
Hall said possible answers tow
men’s superiority in picking op
non-verbal cues could be theoriesof
oppressed people and womensde
sire to be what society expects thee
to be — sensitive and intuitive,
Under the theory of oppresseil
people, women who believe flu;
are dominated by men areforcec
pick up non-verbal cues as a met)
of protection and a weapon
counter male dominance, she said
Hall also said it is possiblewomei
have developed better abilities
interpreting non-verbal commmi
cation because it is expected oftfe
by society.
Some of the studies
encountered indicated that
people have a choice between va
bal messages and non-verbal ran
munication, they often weip
non-verbal information more hen
ily.
She said people seem to ha«i
"gut sense” that there is truth
non-verbal cues.

HOUSTON — Efforts by prose
cutors to establish a motive for the
slaying of a “kindly old judge”
prompted an unsuccessful defense
request for a mistrial Thursday in
the murder solicitation trial of Fort
Worth millionaire T. Cullen Davis.
District Judge Wallace C. Moore
denied the motion and ordered Joe
H. Eidson, 60, former judge in the
defendant’s four-year divorce case,
to continue his testimony today.
Davis, 45, is charged with con- _
spiring, attempting and soliciting
the death of Eidson. The alleged
plot, brought to the attention of the
FBI by an informant, resulted in
Davis’s arrest Aug. 20.
Eidson testified Thursday about
his numerous rulings in the Davis
divorce case — many of which were
adverse to Davis — and mentioned
that he had disqualified himself as
presiding judge nine days after the
defendant’s arrest.
“Prior to that time, your honor,
had there been any attempt by re
spondent (Davis) to remove you
from this case?” prosecutor Tolly
Wilson asked.
Before Eidson could answer, de
fense lawyer Richard “Racehorse”
Haynes asked for private discussions
between Moore and opposing attor
neys at the judge’s bench
Haynes protested that Wilson
remark tainted the jury because
inaccurately characterized a motio
to transfer the divorce suit aw
from Eidson.
Moore ruled the remark wi
proper because Davis indeed la
sought to remove Eidson from 1
case in a motion filed last Febnan
Then Moore denied Haynes’s
tion for a mistrial.
Prosecutors said Hayness ant
ments were designed to previ
jurors from hearing evidenced
possible motive for Davis to 1m
the judge slain.
"Due to the nature of the oni
(Eidson’s rulings) and Davis's
to have him removed, he k
exhausted the methods available!
him to have Eidson replaced,
