The difference in technique could explain why men have long been considered the more competitive sex, scientists believe. Researchers tested the reactions of 87 four-year-olds to assess how they competed against each other. They split the little children into all-male or all-female groups of three and gave each group different numbers of puppets to play with. The researchers found that when there were plenty of toys to go around, both the boys and girls tended to behave in roughly the same way. However, when the groups were given just one puppet between three, distinct differences emerged. The study shows that boys were more likely to ask for the puppet, make a grab for it, or even chase the child who had the toy.However, girls employed a much more indirect approach to get their hands on the prized possession—the threat of social exclusion. The all-girl groups would shun the child who held the puppet, whisper and talk behind her back, and even hide from her, the findings show.  Joyce Benenson, from Emmanuel College in Boston, who led the study, said that the results could explain why girls are more jealous of their friendships than boys. She believes that the threat of being ignored and excluded by their peers is much more relevant for girls and that they have to take action to protect themselves. She said that the children’s “spontaneous” behavior study helped to prove that the idea that women were naturally less competitive was a myth. Even at an early age, she pointed out, they avoid risky direct aggression in favor of subtler forms of competition, such as small shifts in tone and expression, or spreading rumors.

女性在如何處理競爭情況方面比男性更微妙，甚至從很小的時候就開始。科學家們認為，這種技術上的差異可以解釋為什麽男性長期以來被認為是更有競爭力的性別。研究人員測試了87名四歲兒童的反應，以評估他們是如何相互競爭的。他們將這些小孩子分成全男或全女的三組，並給每組不同數量的木偶來玩。研究人員發現，當有大量的玩具可供利用時，男孩和女孩的行為傾向於大致相同。然而，當三組之間只給一個木偶時，出現了明顯的差異。研究表明，男孩更有可能要求得到木偶，搶奪木偶，甚至追趕擁有玩具的孩子。然而，女孩采用了一種更間接的方法來得到她們的珍貴物品--社會排斥的威脅。調查結果顯示，所有女孩組都會回避持有木偶的孩子，在她背後竊竊私語...
