LONDON: Women may have smaller brains than men, but they are more efficient at completing a task, a new study has claimed.
It has been a mystery for scientists why women show no difference in intelligence, although their brains are eight per cent smaller than men's.
Neuroscientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, and universities in Madrid, Spain found that women's brains are more efficient, needing fewer neurons and less energy to complete a task.
The study conducted a range of psychological tests on 59 women and 45 men, aged 18-27.
