This study examines accent biases in hiring practices among educators in U.S. schools. Using quantitative methods, the research investigates whether bias levels and accent types influence hiring decisions. The study, involving 216 hiring managers from various school sectors, found no significant correlation between bias levels (audio versus video) and accent types (native versus nonnative) in hiring decisions across K-12 public, private, and charter schools. The Kruskal-Wallis test (nonparametric test for Two-Way ANOVA) and Mann-Whitney U test (nonparametric test for Independent Samples t-Test) was used for data analysis. Qualtrics (an online data collection platform) was used to recruit participants for the research study. A Likert scale survey was used to collect data- this was called the Accent Beliefs Scale by Karolina Hansen. While the results suggest that accent bias may not directly impact educator hiring, the study underscores the importance of ongoing diversity, inclusion, and equity efforts within organizations. Future research could delve into specific accent variations and focus on biases, such as those observed in audio-only interviews, to yield more nuanced insights into accent bias effects.
