Study finds sex differences in attention present at birth
Original: Sex differences in attention are present at birth
University of Cambridge researchers report that sex differences in attention can be measured in newborns, suggesting the gap emerges far earlier than previously assumed. The finding is drawing attention online, with readers debating what it implies about the roles of biology and environment in cognitive development, and how early developmental differences should be interpreted.
Why now: The claim that attention differences appear at birth touches the sensitive debate over nature versus nurture.
