Reasons Why Men Better Than Women in the Driving



Often heard a joke which says that women are not capable of driving as well as men, it turned out to be true, because scientists found the reason. Men better than women while driving under the influence of the hormone testosterone.


When driving a car or other vehicle, a person needs a good control of direction, it can be influenced by the hormone testosterone. According to an analytical study, testosterone is what causes spatial navigation abilities men better than women.

"The research we've done previously showed that women who received testosterone had increased skills in navigation," said Justin Rhodes, professor of psychology at the University of Illinois, who led the research.

In addition to having a better ability to navigate, testosterone can also make men more adaptive. This adaptive nature of the benefit to men in order to more easily adapt to the circumstances or things that are new and challenging.

Rhodes with another team of researchers analyzed 35 studies that included data on other spatial abilities range from 11 animal species, such as squid, rats, deer, horses, etc., including humans.

The research team found that 8 of the 11 species showed that males or males (humans) have better spatial abilities than females or female species (in humans).

"These findings support the hypothesis that is often overlooked, that guy is better in terms of spatial navigation or direction," added Rhodes, as reported by Health India.
