Abstract
Birth order has long been discussed as an important influence on human behavior; some have even posited an evolutionary basis for this phenomenon. One common hypothesis is that first born people are more achievement oriented and successful in life. However, data compiled on male political leaders do not provide much support for this expectation. This paper expands the study of birth order on achievement by looking at women political leaders, to see if birth order has an effect on their success. Results are not generally supportive of a significant role for birth order in women political leaders' success either.
