The College Sophomore as Guinea Pig: Setting the Record Straight
回应1986年关于用大学生作为组织研究对象的文章，提出期刊编辑应考虑学生样本的相对有用性及组间差异的解释。
The article presents a response to the 1986 article “‘The Science of the Sophomore’ Revisited: From Conjecture to Empiricism,” by M. E. Gordon, L.A. Slade, and N. Schmitt regarding using college students as subjects for organizational research. The author states that though the subject of the original paper is valid, it deserves further analysis, and offers two reasons why journal editors should consider studies that feature college student data. The author suggests that editors consider the relative usefulness of student and non-student samples and the interpretation of the between-subject differences.
