Novikova M.A. (2011). Gender aspects of the correlations between self-assessed intelligence, academic performance and personal traits of students. The Moscow University Psychology Bulletin, 3, 76-86
Gender differences of self-assessed intelligence (SAI) and its linkage with academic performance are reviewed on the sample of 500 university students, specializing in psychology. Significant difference in SAI between men and women is shown: men estimate their IQ higher than women. The possibility of reviewing SAI as a mediating variable between intellectual potential, personal traits and academic performance is discussed.
