Studies in the news.  April 2007: A special section of the Archives of Sexual Behavior, guest edited by Richard Lippa, presents studies that analyze data from the 2005 BBC Internet survey, conducted in conjunction with the BBC One documentary, Secrets of the Sexes.  About a quarter of a million people across the world responded to this survey, which investigated psychological sex differences--how men and women differ in their cognitive abilities, personality traits, sexual attitudes and behavior, mate preferences, and attitudes.  For further information about the BBC studies, see the BBC Science and Nature website.
