Sažetak
The question whether gender differences in behavior and cognitive abilities could be explained by the differences in the brain structures and functions of women and men, is still a current one. As it is with complex behaviors, the key is in the interaction of biological, psychological and social factors.While some authors are prone to exaggerate and overemphasize the differences of various aspects of the female and male behavior and cognitive functioning (like the author of the book "Men are from Mars, women are frome Venus"), others are more inclined to accept the hypothesis of gender similarities, which states that not even small differences in behavior and cognition could be ascribed to the differences of the female and male brain. In this lecture we will be focusing on different hypotheses and theories of the source of gender differences in behavior and cognitive functions, support them with research results and offer our own outlook on this interesting and always intriguing subject.
