There are,(56), differences in the standard deviations(偏差)or variability of the(57) of the two es in many IQ tests,(58)men showing the greater variation．The(59)of many IQ test scores are such(60)they approximate to the normal curve(正规曲线)．If we regard some arbitrary lower score on a test as a classification like 'educational subnormal(智力上逊常的人)' (ESN) and some equally arbitrary(61)score as 'gifted', we then find that there is higher ratio of ESN males to women and likewise we(62)that there are more gifted men than women, even though the average scores are the same.
