However, this general subject has been treated with much hyperbole. Historically, sex differences were assumed to be present where they did not really exist, e.g. with respect to mathematics, executive leadership, etc. etc. Under what circumstances do we really care about sex differences in brain and behavior? These circumstances concern human maladies whose diagnoses are much different between boys and girls, or between women and men. Prominent examples to be discussed today will include autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorders and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The meeting will end with a consideration of effects of estrogenic hormones on the injured brain, and their roles as protective agents. 410 0$aResearch and Perspectives in Endocrine Interactions,$x1861-2253 606 $aSex differentiation 606 $aHuman genetics 606 $aNeurosciences 606 $aEndocrinology 615 0$aSex differentiation. 615 0$aHuman genetics. 615 0$aNeurosciences. 615 0$aEndocrinology. 676 $a600 700 $aPfaff$b Donald W$01756073 701 $aChristen$b Yves$0155886 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437824703321 996 $aMultiple origins of sex differences in brain$94193167 997 $aUNINA
