It has been believed for over 100 years that men and women have the same mental ability. However, all the studies indicate that may not be the truth as men have scored more on each test done.
The real difference between men and women can be seen only at the end of adolescence and at the beginning of adulthood because the difference in maturity in teenagers masks the real picture since it is known that girls mature earlier.
All the factors like age, socioeconomic levels, family income, level of person’s education as well as their parents’ and ethnicity were taken into account and in the end, males showed advantage in 4 to 5-point IQ over females.
Earlier studies showed that men had a 100-gram advantage over women in brain weight
and volume and that men had about 15% more neurons -- the functional units of the brain.
