1.Youve heard of your I.Q., your general intelligence, but whats your Psy-Q? 你们都听过I.Q.这个词，就是所谓的智商。 但，你的Psy-Q（心理智商）呢？2.How much do you know about what makes you tick, and how good are you at predicting other peoples behavior or even your own? 你对于成就你的事物了解多少？ 而你又多擅长去预测别人的行为？ 甚至说你自己的行为？3.And how much of what you think you know about psychology is wrong? 你认为你所瞭解的心理学，有多少是错误的呢？4.Lets find out by counting down the top 10 myths of psychology. 就让我们一起来倒数揭露这心理学上的十大迷思。5.Youve probably heard it said that when it comes to their psychology, its almost as if men are from Mars and women are from Venus. 当人们在提及心理学时，你或许曾经听他们说过： 这就像是男人从火星来，女人从金星来。6.But how different are men and women really? 但是，男性和女性之间究竟真的差多少呢？7.To find out, lets start by looking at something on which men and women really do differ and plotting some psychological gender differences on the same scale. 为了找到真相，我们就来看看这些 男性和女性有所不同的事物， 并且在同规模的图表上画出两性的差异线。8.One thing men and women do really differ on is how far they can throw a ball. 男性与女性有差异的事情之一， 是能够把球丢得多远。9.So if we look at the data for men here, we see what is called a normal distribution curve. 让我们来看看这个关于男性的资料， 我们现在看到的这个就是所谓的常态分配曲线。10.A few men can throw a ball really far, and a few men not far at all, but most a kind of average distance. 少数的男性可以将球丢得非常远，另外少数的男性则丢不远， 但大部分的男性都丢在一个平均距离中。11.And women share the same distribution as well, but actually theres quite a big difference. 而女性也相同的呈现了常态分配曲线。 但我们可以看到这里出现了一个蛮大的差异。12.In fact, the average man can throw a ball further than about 98 percent of all women. 事实上，大部份的男性都可以把球丢得比 98％的女性还要来得更远。13.So now lets look at what some psychological gender differences look like on the same standardized scale. 那么我们现在来看看在相同标准规模上的 一些心理性别差异。14.Any psychologist will tell you that men are better at spatial awareness than women -- so things like map-reading, for example -- and its true, 不论哪个心理学家都会告诉你， 男性的空间感比女性还要更好， 像是地图识读的能力而这是真的，15.but lets have a look at the size of this difference. 但让我们来看
