“…For example, females are more often affected by anxiety disorders (Mclean, Asnaani, & Litz, ) and depression (Abate, ) that are associated with deficits in face processing and emotion perception. On the other hand, males have a higher risk of developing autism spectrum disorders (Werling & Geschwind, ) that show impaired emotional perception and are more vulnerable to attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD; Ramtekkar, Reiersen, Todorov, & Todd, ) that are related to attention, working memory, executive functioning deficits (Kibby et al, ) and reduced perception of anger (Manassis, Tannock, Young, & Francis‐John, ). Thus, investigating sex‐related differences in behavioral and neural responses, as well as brain structure, in larger samples of healthy observers will have important implications for identifying such sex differences in these psychiatric disorders.…”
