Men and women are not so different after all, and think quite alike, suggest scientists at Iowa State University.

Krizan said, "The study suggested that men and women were relatively similar when it came to most psychological attributes. This was true regardless of whether we looked at cognitive domains, such as intelligence; social personality domains, such as personality traits; or at well-being, such as satisfaction with life. The similarities were also consistent regardless of age and over time."
However, the researchers also identified 10 attributes in which there was a significant gap between genders. Some of these characteristics fell in line with stereotypes; for example, men were more aggressive and masculine, while women had a closer attachment to peers and were more sensitive to pain.
The study is published in American Psychologist.
