Neurosexism and the brain: how gender stereotypes can distort or even damage research
Gina Rippon
Aston University
Mar 10, 2021
The ‘Hunt the Sex Difference’ agenda has informed brain research for decades, if not centuries. This talk aims to demonstrate how a fixed belief in differences between ‘male’ and ‘female’ brains can narrow and even distort the research process. This can include the questions that are asked, the methodology selected and the analytical pipeline. It can also powerfully inform the interpretation of results and the ‘spin’ used in the public communication of such research.
