- they looked at the sexually dimorphic nuclues in human brains using brain scans
- they looked at 13 males and 18 females between the age of 10-93
- they found that the sexually dimorphic nucleus was 2.5 times larger in male brains than female brains
- it was found in the same area of the brain as in the Young study
AO2/3
- it is a very scientific study as it uses brain scans etc
- the study can be very easily repeated using different samples making it reliable
- as it is using a human sample of different ages, gender etc it can be fully genralised to entire populations
- what the scans show may not be fully accurate
