Quantitative Analysis of Gender Differences in the Effects of Lateralized Lesions on Verbal and Performance IQ.

Turkheimer, Eric; And Others

Intelligence, v17 n4 p461-74 Oct-Dec 1993

Relationships between brain-lesion location and behavior in 33 males and 31 females with unilateral lesions were studied. Statistical tests suggest that a single model can describe the relationships for females, but in males separate models of the relationships between lesion location, verbal intelligence quotient, and performance intelligence quotients are required.
