Background/Description
The questions are based on a very large number of sex differences found in the research. Body sex does not necessarily match brain sex. In my experience many of us have mixed brain – we fall on a continuum. There are a large number of studies that show relative digit length correlate with many male/female patterns of behaviour. A few are cited on the next page.
Administration, Scoring and Interpretation
- Focus on individual strengths and interests: Everyone has unique cognitive abilities and interests regardless of their assigned sex. Celebrate individual strengths and avoid comparing them to arbitrary gender norms.
- Explore evidence-based resources: Learn about human brain function and individual variability from credible sources like scientific journals and books by reputable neuroscientists.
- Embrace gender diversity: Recognize and celebrate the spectrum of human experiences and avoid reinforcing harmful stereotypes about how people should think and behave based on their sex or gender identity.
