==== In glucose metabolism ====
Cognitive neuroscientists [[Richard J. Haier|Richard Haier]] and [[Camilla Persson Benbow]] employed positron emission tomography ([[Positron emission tomography|PET]]) scans to investigate the rate of [[glucose metabolism]] among students who have taken the SAT. They found that among men, those with higher SAT mathematics scores exhibited higher rates of glucose metabolism in the [[temporal lobe]]s than those with lower scores, contradicting the brain-efficiency hypothesis. This trend, however, was not found among women, for whom the researchers could not find any cortical regions associated with mathematical reasoning. Both sexes scored the same on average in their sample and had the same rates of cortical glucose metabolism overall. According to Haier and Benbow, this is evidence for the structural differences of the brain between the sexes.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Haier|first1=Richard|last2=Benbow|first2=Camilla Persson|date=1995|title=Sex differences and lateralization in temporal lobe glucose metabolism during mathematical reasoning|url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/87565649509540629|journal=Developmental Neuropsychology|volume=11|issue=4|pages=405–414|doi=10.1080/87565649509540629|via=|access-date=January 30, 2021|archive-date=May 25, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210525174125/https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/87565649509540629|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="Haier-2018">{{Cite book|last=Haier|first=Richard|url=http://www.cambridge.org/9781316629642|title=The Nature of Human Intelligence|publisher=Cambridge University Press|year=2018|isbn=978-1-107-17657-7|editor-last=Sternberg|editor-first=Robert|location=|pages=|chapter=Chapter 11: A View from the Brain|access-date=January 30, 2021|archive-date=August 21, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230821181135/https://www.cambridge.org/us/universitypress/subjects/psychology/cognition/nature-human-intelligence?format=PB&isbn=9781316629642|url-status=live}}</ref>
