Do women remember better then men do? Research shows that females may have an advantage over men when it comes to episodic memory, the type of long term memory based in personal experiences. A Swedish team of psychologists showed, for example, that women are better on average than men at remembering faces.
Previous studies have shown that women also have a superior memory for verbal information, which they may use to detect a person’s underlying motives or intentions – a skill that, “seems to elude many men”.
