It is pointed out in the passage that girls ----.
The ability to deal with numbers and mathematical
concepts reveals an interesting pattern of differences
between girls and boys. Girls usually begin counting
before boys. Throughout the primary-school years
and middle school, girls are better at computational
problems, whereas boys do better with mathreasoning
problems. During this period, girls also
tend to get higher grades. By high school, however,
boys begin to perform better, especially at the higher
levels of ability. Some psychologists believe this
advantage is genetic, but others think that it may
derive, in part, from males' use of more effective
strategies and their lower level of anxiety when
approaching mathematics problems. It has also been
suggested that the sex differences come about to
some degree because girls view math as a male
activity (and, therefore, have less interest in it) and
because some parents and teachers offer greater
encouragement to males in this area. Some studies
support this analysis, but others do not. In this area,
too, biological and socialization factors probably
combine to produce the observed differences.
