Gender and willingness to mentor in organizations
研究了三家组织中男女指导意愿的差异,发现控制年龄、职位、任期和指导经验后,男女意愿相当,但女性预期更多弊端;有指导经验者意愿更强。
We investigated differences in willingness to mentor among men and women in three organizations. When controlling for gender differences in factors relating to decisions to mentor (age, rank, tenure, and mentorship experience), women expressed equivalent intentions to mentor as men, even though they anticipated more drawbacks to becoming a mentor. Additionally, individuals with prior experience in mentoring relationships, either as a protege or as a mentor, reported greater willingness to mentor than individuals lacking mentorship experience.
