The Effects of Gender and Carnegie Classification on Personnel Ratings of Administrators and Chairs. IDEA Research Report #11
Li, Dan; Benton, Stephen L.
IDEA Center, Inc.
The authors conducted a study to investigate whether personnel ratings of administrators and department chairs differ by the ratees' gender and the Carnegie classification of their institutions. The authors inferred the genders (male or female) from first names and analyzed personnel ratings for 1,011 administrators and 762 department chairs respectively. Results indicated that administrators and chairs of both genders receive comparable ratings on their performance of administrative responsibilities, personal characteristics, leadership style, and summary judgments. Administrators at doctoral institutions were rated more favorably on administrative roles and leadership style than their counterparts at master's and baccalaureate institutions. Chairs at master's institutions were generally rated more highly than their peers at doctoral institutions.
