数学成绩的性别差异已在广泛的年龄组中进行了研究，但只有少数研究涉及学龄前儿童的这一问题。我们比较了学龄前女孩（n = 570）和男孩（n = 524）从德国方面的数字能力。探讨了女孩和男孩在低、中、高水平表现的总体组平均值和代表频率的差异。整体组平均值的分析显示，男孩比女孩表现更好（d = 0.32）。频率的分析表明，在两个尾巴的差异，但不是在中间的数字能力的分布。虽然男孩往往表现更好，但女孩在能力较低的一端所占比例过高。这些研究结果表明，性别差异的数学成绩可以出现在入学之前，并强调进一步研究的重要性，寻找性别差异的数学成绩在学龄前儿童从不同的国家以及可能的潜在因素。
Gender differences in mathematical achievement have been examined in a wide range of age groups but only a few studies addressed this issue in preschool children. We compared preschool girls (n = 570) and boys (n = 524) from Germany with regard to numerical competencies. Differences in overall group means and the frequency of representation at low, middle, or high levels of performance were explored for girls and boys. Analysis of overall group means revealed that boys showed a better performance than girls (d = .32). The analysis of frequencies showed differences in both tails but not in the middle of the distribution of numerical competencies. While boys were more often found at higher levels of performance, girls were found to be overrepresented in the low-ability end of the distribution. These findings demonstrate that gender differences in mathematical achievement can emerge before school entry and stress the importance of further research looking for gender divides in mathematical achievement in preschool children from different countries as well as possible underlying factors.
