Mongoloid-Caucasoid Differences in Brain Size from Military Samples.

Rushton, J. Philippe; And Others

Intelligence, v15 n3 p351-67 Jul-Sep 1991

Calculation of cranial capacities for the means from 4 Mongoloid and 20 Caucasoid samples (raw data from 57,378 individuals in 1978) found larger brain size for Mongoloids, a finding discussed in evolutionary terms. The conclusion is disputed by L. Willerman but supported by J. P. Rushton. (SLD)
