Two studies, conducted in the four European Union countries, involving 2,000 participants (1,000 men and 1 000 women) concluded that females are 74 - 92% as strong as males, as many women (211 of 1,000) are still physically stronger than average men. [29] [30] The differences is smaller in lower body strength and higher in upper body strength. [27]
A small performance difference in mathematics on the SAT [28] persists in favor of males, though the gap has shrunk from 40 points (5.0%) in 1975 [29] to 18 points (2.3%) in 2020. [30] However, the SAT is not a representative sample, given that it tests only college-bound students, and more women than men have attended college since the 1990s. [31]
Though statistically there are sex differences in white matter and gray matter percentage, this ratio is directly related to brain size, and some [22] argue these sex differences in gray and white matter percentage are caused by the average size difference between men and women. Others argue that these differences partly remain after ...
Empirical studies of g, or general intelligence, in men and women have given inconsistent results, showing either no differences or advantages for either sex. [citation needed] The differences in average IQ between women and men are small in magnitude and inconsistent in direction. [70] [71] [72] [73]
The strength training you do today could benefit you years from now, says Carlson. Even if muscle size diminishes after a hiatus, the muscle cells you build through training remain, creating a ...

[7] The sex difference is small to moderate, somewhat inconsistent, and is often influenced by the person's motivations or social environment. [ 7 ]

A 2005 meta-analysis found greater female variability on the standard Raven's Progressive Matrices, and no difference in variability on the advanced progressive matrices, but also found that males had a higher average general intelligence. [24] This meta analysis, however, was criticized for bias by the authors and for poor methodology. [25 ...
