In this review we explore the sex differences underlying various types of social cognition. Particular focus will be placed on the behaviors of social recognition, social learning, and aggression. Known similarities and differences between sexes in the expressions of these behaviors and the known brain regions where these behaviors are mediated are discussed. The role that the sex hormones (estrogens and androgens) have as well as possible interactions with other neurochemicals, such as oxytocin, vasopressin, and serotonin is reviewed as well. Finally, implications about these findings on the mediation of social cognition are mediated and the sex differences related to humans are considered.
在本综述中，我们探讨了各类社会认知背后的性别差异。将特别关注社会识别、社会学习和攻击行为。讨论了两性在这些行为表现方面已知的异同，以及介导这些行为的已知脑区。还综述了性激素（雌激素和雄激素）的作用以及与其他神经化学物质（如催产素、加压素和血清素）可能的相互作用。最后，阐述了这些关于社会认知介导的研究结果的意义，并考虑了与人类相关的性别差异。
