How is gender related to mathematics and science achievement?
The Bottom Line
The difference in academic and psychological outcomes for males and females is generally small, suggesting that gender similarities vastly outweigh any gender differences. Even where large differences were found (in physical activity/aggression), 40 percent of the lower-scoring group (females) still scored higher than the average for the higher-scoring group (males), suggesting again that gender similarities are more prevalent than gender differences.
