摘要
In this study our aim was to determine if there were significant differences in students' (12-13 years old) mathematics achievement when differentiating them by sex (boys and girls) and by gender (masculine, feminine, androgynous and undifferentiated traits). 1056 students were given a mathematical test and the Bern Sex Inventory. Results confirm that there are no significant differences when considering sex, but there are significant differences when gender is taken into account. Students (boys and girls) with masculine traits do better. Girls surpassed boys in almost all the gender categories. The sample will be followed up for two more years in order to detect changes in achievement and gender traits.
