• The negative Flynn Effect: A systematic literature review (2016, background): “For example, Lynn and Irwing (2004) have suggested that in adults, women score, on average 3 to 5 IQ points lower than men.”
• Revisiting the entrepreneur gender–performance relationship: a firm perspective (2014, background): “For example, cognitive ability among males and females has been contested but math scores in the general school population as well as IQ tests between males and females has found little, if any, difference (Hyde et al. 2008; Lynn and Irwing 2004).”
• Sex differences in mental abilities: g masks the dimensions on which they lie (2007, background): “…that there is at most a small sex difference in general ability (Colom & Lynn, 2004; Deary, Thorpe, Wilson, Starr, & Whalley, 2003; Jensen, 1998; Lynn & Irwing, 2004), but men tend to do much better on many visuospatial tasks while women tend to do much better on many tests of verbal usage and…”
• Women's underrepresentation in science: sociocultural and biological considerations. (2009, neutral): “Two meta-analyses reported that male adult means on general intelligence tests (Raven’s Progressive Matrices) are approximately 5 IQ points above female means (Irwing & Lynn, 2005; Lynn & Irwing, 2004).”
• Brother–sister differences in the g factor in intelligence: analysis of full, opposite-sex siblings from the NLSY1979 (2007, background): “The possible role of mean ability differences in explaining the male excess in certain occupational groups, especially science, has been discussed (Lynn & Irwing, 2004).”
• Subgroup Differences in Situational Judgment Test Performance: A Meta-Analysis (2008, neutral): “Because mean sex differences in general cognitive ability are reported to be near zero (Hough et al., 2001; Jensen, 1998) or small (Lynn & Irwing, 2004; d = .33), we do not anticipate the cognitive loading of the SJTs to moderate mean sex differences in SJT scores.”
