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]
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.
A 2016 meta-analysis of volume differences found a higher HCV in males without correcting for total brain size. However, after adjusting for individual differences and total brain volume, they found no significant sex difference, despite the expectation that women may have larger hippocampus volume. [29]
Taking into account measurement quality, and sample type and IQ-range, the meta-analytic association of brain volume in appears to be ~ .4 in normal adults. [15] Researcher Jakob Pietschnig argued that the strength of the positive association of brain volume and IQ remains robust, but has been overestimated in the literature.
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.
The factors considered important to the relationship between brain size and intelligence were age, sex and hemispheric functional lateralization. They found that general verbal ability was correlated with cerebral volume in women and right-handed men. It was not possible to find a relationship between ability and volume in with every group ...
There’s no concrete answer, although one study found that women experience decreased sex drive between ages 55 and 64; another study found that as many as 40 percent of women over 60 have low ...
