Women score higher than men on fluid intelligence tests when allowed to express uncertainty
Standard multiple-choice tests might be fundamentally mismeasuring human cognition. When researchers updated traditional intelligence tests to allow test-takers to express uncertainty and manage risk, women scored higher than men.

The Risk–Reward Principle I Didn’t Explain Clearly in My Article on Cyclical Opportunities | Richard Golian
That model is based on a simple question: if I take a certain risk, how much can I gain — and how much can I lose? And is that ratio in my favor? In finance, this is called risk–reward.
If you need a dashboard of indicators just to decide how much to risk on a single trade, you don't have a system. You have a superstition. The real question is: are you managing risk, or are you managing your fear of being wrong?
