Abstract
⺠Empathizing (E)-Systemizing (S) discrepancy differentiates human cognitive styles. ⺠We investigate the brain structural basis for 'E-S discrepancy' in adult males. ⺠S > E profile is related to larger cingulate and dorsal medial prefrontal structures. ⺠E > S profile is related to larger hypothalamus and ventral basal ganglia. ⺠E-S discrepancy is reflected by distinct individual differences in brain structure.
