| | Sex differences in parental estimates of their children's intelligence Sex Roles: A Journal of Research - Find Articles |
 | | It appears to be both explicitly and implicitly assumed that men were more intelligent than women, and the historical legacy of this may be observed in various national educational policies and organizational hiring decisions (Lippa, 1994). |
 | | There is also an extensive, if somewhat equivocal, literature on sex differences in attributions for success and failure suggesting that some females attribute success in male-dominated occupations to luck or chance (external factors), while males attribute it to ability or motivation (internal factors; Feather & Simon, 1995). |
 | | Although there were no sex differences in self-IQ estimates, males thought they had higher IQs than their sisters, while females believed themselves and their sisters' equivalent, though their estimates of their fathers' scores were higher than the estimate of their mothers', brothers', and sisters' IQ. |
