Abstract

In veel beroepen zijn vrouwen goed tot zeer goed vertegenwoordigd. Denken we maar aan de vele vrouwelijke artsen, psychologen, dierenartsen en tandartsen. Op het eerste zicht werken vrouwen op gelijke voet met mannen in de wetenschappelijke beroepen. Als we echter naar het aandeel vrouwen in beroepen zoals informaticus en ingenieur kijken, is het beeld minder positief. Hier is de overgrote meerderheid man. Hoe is dit nu te verklaren? Drie verschillende verklaringen worden onder de loepe genomen. Een eerste verklaring is dat mannelijke hersenen beter geschikt zouden zijn voor dere beroepen. Een tweede verklaring legt de klemtoon op de culturele en sociale barrières die vrouwen belemmeren in hun aspiraties. En ten slotte zouden vrouwen, in tegenstelling tot mannen, een voorkeur hebben voor beroepen waarin menselijk contact belangrijk is.

Even though women consistently receive better grades in math and science, men excel on math aptitude tests and are greatly overrepresented in the so-called hard sciences. This book explores why males are overrepresented in mathematically intensive professions such as physics, computer science, chemistry, and engineering.

Abstract

This work reviews psychological research on practical intelligence and describes its importance in everyday life. The authors reveal the importance of tacit knowledge - what we have learned from our own experience, through action. This work reviews psychological research on practical intelligence and describes its importance in everyday life. The authors reveal the importance of tacit knowledge - what we have learned from our own experience, through action. Although it has been seen as an indispensable element of expertise, intelligence researchers have found it difficult to quantify. The data shows that practical intelligence is psychologically and statistically distinct from academic intelligence, and is distinct as well from personality and styles of thought. The data also indicates that practical intelligence predicts job performance and even aspects of school performance as well as, or better than, academic intelligence. This volume thoroughly examines studies of practical intelligence in the United States and in many other parts of the world as well, and for varied occupations, such as management, military leadership, teaching, research and sales.
