Preferential Treatment in Preselection Decisions According to Sex and Race.
通过向458家潜在雇主邮寄虚构求职者简历,发现初选阶段存在对黑人和男性的优待,而非歧视。
Resumes of fictitious applicants for entry-level professional positions were mailed to 458 potential employers, and the responses were analyzed. A three-group experimental design permitted control for differential response not due to the race and sex treatment. Preferential treatment was found in favor of blacks over whites and in favor of males over females.
