- Arrow-stopping potential with beginning and inexperienced archers

Stereotype Bias In Selection: A Process Approach, Donald V. Currie
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This investigation was to determine if an applicant’s sex and the job’s sex orientation stereotypes affected the evaluation of applicant information and subsequent selection decision outcomes.

The results indicated that an interaction of the applicant’s sex and job’s sex orientation had marginal affect on the importance weightings in two of the four applicant attribute factors, motivation/ability and personality/appearance.
