Girls Are Smarter than Boys: A PASS Theory Validity Study

Girls Are Smarter than Boys: A PASS Theory Validity Study
Paper presented at the Annual American Psychological Association Convention, August, 1999, Boston, MA

Sex differences have been of interest to many researchers and practitioners and the subject of substantial debate in the popular media for some time. Many recognize that girls and boys are different, especially in school. Research has shown that girls do better than boys in verbal tests and school achievement, and are less often identified as having learning disabilities or attention deficit disorders. In this investigation a sample of 1,100 boys and 1,100 girls who matched the U.S. population on several demographic characteristics were compared using the PASS theory. Results showed that girls outperformed boys on measures of Planning and Attention by about 5 points.

بنت السعودية الفين شكر لكم اعزائي على مروركم الكريم

بس يا اخواني واخواتي اختلاف الاراء لايفسد للود قضية

lممكن اضيف شئ

اذا سمحت الدكتوره كوين

انه في البحوث العربيه وجدوا ان الفتاه اكثر انتباها من الولد

ولكن عالي المستوى قد اصاب فيما قال انه لكن مجتمع وله خاصيته

وةطبعا كما تلمون انه لايوجد ولن يوجد بحث دقيق حتي في الامور الطبيه

ولا يوجد ادق من القران الذي انزله ربنا عزوجل واتحدانا فيه

هذه وجهت نظري

أحمد العقيدي

ومع ان الفتيات اكثر انتباها

الا انه في الامتحانات يتفوق عدد الاولاد علي الفتيات

ملحوظه

لا يوجد بحث حتي يومنا هذا يكشف اسرار المراءه
لان المراءه لاتبوح لاسرارها ممهما كان الامر

A loooooot Of Thanks
Ahmad
