Evaluations of the Work of Men and Women as a Function of the Sex of the Judge and Type of Work

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Forty‐two male and 42 female subjects selected from a large city, a small town, or a university campus were asked to evaluate four pen and ink sketches and four quotations. Two sketches and two quotations were associated with fictitious women's names while the remainder were associated with fictitious men's names. A three‐way interaction indicated that women tended to discriminate against the productions attributed to men, and men significantly discriminated against the productions of women. But all discriminations were limited to intellectual productions (quotations).
