Are Bigger Brains Smarter? Evidence from a Large-Scale Pre-Registered Studyintelligenceeducational attainmentbrain volumepre-registered analysisUK BiobankA positive relationship between brain volume and intelligence has been suspected since the 19th century and empirical studies seem to support this hypothesis...
Did you know that women's brains are smaller than men's? The average women's brain weighs 10% less than men's. Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent(聪明的) than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score simi...
The average size of modern humans -- the Homo sapiens -- has decreased about 10 percent during that period -- from 1,500 to 1,359 cubic centimeters, the size of a tennis ball. Women's brains, which are smaller on average than those of men, have experienced an equivalent drop in size...
When proteins in ASPM are shorter, brains are smaller. To return to the similarities of mice and men, researchers have shown that a gene called Emx2, present in both rodents and humans, may control how the brain is actually divided. The researchers found that changes to expression of this ...
The science on big heads is out, and size matters. Big heads lead to big developed brains in the cranial cavity that equate to more often than not, a higher intelligence. This does not mean that all people who have a large head are very smart or that the smaller your head and smaller...

A study led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden shows that ravens are as clever as chimpanzees, despite having much smaller brains, indicating that rather than the size of the brain, the neuronal density and the structure of the birds' brains play an important role in terms of their...
