3. Are there sex differences in intelligence?
Keyword(s):
‘Are there sex differences in intelligence?’ considers the data sets from the Scottish Mental Survey of 1932, the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth from 1979, and the Cognitive Abilities Test 3 sample from 2001–3. All three studies show that there is little evidence of any average difference in intelligence between boys and girls, or young adults. However, for overall general intelligence, there are slightly more girls than boys in these samples around the average scores, and proportionately more males than females at the higher and lower extremes. Among the cognitive domains, a different pattern occurred for verbal reasoning: there were more girls at the higher scores.
