Here is something for the "scientists discover what everybody has always known" file (encapsulated in the expression, "Women and children first"). Note that science, by its nature, can never supply us with values or ends. All it can do is inform us of how things are, including how humans are (either by nature or as socialized), including how humans think, talk, and behave. The moral question, as opposed to the scientific question, is whether there is a relevant difference between men and women that justifies differential treatment of the sort identified by the researchers.
