A recent standardization of the Progressive Matrices in Syria for the ages 7 through 18 is analysed for (1) sex differences on the test and shows there are none; (2) for sex differences in variability and also shows there are none; and (3) for the mean IQ compared with those in Britain and the United States; this shows that the average IQ is lower than in Britain and the United States.
