There are exceptions, but here are the facts. On the average, males score higher on tests that measure mathematical reasoning, mechanical ability, and problem-solving skills.

The second theory states that a child’s vocabulary level is the key factor. According to this theory, some key steps have to occur in a logical sequence before sentence formation occurs. Children’s mathematical knowledge develops in the same way. In 2007, researchers at Harvard University, who were studying the two theories, found a clever way to test them. More than 20,000 internationally adopted children enter the U.S. each year. Many of them no longer hear their birth language after they arrive, and they must learn English more or less the same way infants do 一that is, by listening and by trial and error.
