Females recruit faster alpha motor neurons than males during the patellar stretch reflex: evidence for neurophysiological sexual dimorphism

Georgina Tindell, Paul A. Smith

The paper investigates sex differences in the patellar stretch reflex, finding females have faster motor neuron conduction velocities and earlier premotor latencies than males.
