Although men have larger brains, men and women have equal IQs. [19] For men, the gray matter volume in the frontal and parietal lobes correlates with IQ; for women, the gray matter volume in the frontal lobe and Broca's area (which is used in language processing) correlates with IQ. [20]

In men the average weight is about 1370 g and in women about 1200 g. [4] [contradictory] The volume is around 1260 cm 3 in men and 1130 cm 3 in women, although there is substantial individual variation. [5] Yet another study found that adult human brain weight is 1300–1400 g for adult humans and 350–400 g for newborn humans.
Norwegian epidemiologists used military records to examine the birth order, health status, and IQ scores of nearly 250,000 18- and 19-year-old men born between 1967 and 1976.
