70% of Top-Quiz Players Are Women: The Case of QuizBoom.com

The statistics of the recently launched online skill game QuizBoom.com show that 70% of all-time top players are women. This finding might be an affirmation to some well-known evidence on the highest intelligence quotients of women. On the other hand the statistics may reflect the world-wide tendency – women play games more than men do. To make stronger implications QuizBoom.com is going to research the particular topic.

London, United Kingdom, July 05, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Since the official launch of the online quiz QuizBoom.com only 5 days have past. However, some tendencies regarding composition of players and their habits are already evident. Predominance of woman among the top players is one of the most striking trends.

There also exist other differences of playing trends between men and women. It is evident that woman score better in question related to art, cinematography and literature. While men are more knowledgeable about geography and exact sciences, except mathematics – women show better results in this field.

Moreover, the age difference of men and women is also an issue that requires further research. Current statistics reflect that on average men who play at QuizBoom.com are older than women. This trend could be partly explained by previous researches – many young mothers, housewives on maternity leave, spend a big part of their time by surfing the Internet.

Due to the short operating period of QuizBoom.com, the implications about differences of men and women-players are not yet supported by strong evidence. However, QuizBoom.com is planning to start a research on this issue soon. In order to gain qualitative date the first phase of the research will include interviews with most active players of the site.

QuizBoom.com has also created two promo codes for the research purposes – “woman” and “man”. The corresponding promo code should be entered in the registration page of the portal – besides giving 30 bonus chips for new users it will ease the research of players’ habits.
