- Summary:
-
To examine methodological issues of managerial gender communication, a study conducted a meta-analysis of the primary research of managerial gender communication. The study addressed the following four issues: (1) the inconsistent findings in managerial gender communication research; (2) the potential influence of male and female stereotypes on research methodology and outcomes; (3) the potential influence of expectancy bias and experimenter effect on primary research studies; and (4) the effect of time on managerial gender communication research outcomes. Twenty-five studies were selected for the meta-analysis. The following characteristics were recorded for each study: authors of the study; number of subjects; sex of target, sex of subject; types of variables in each study; statistical tests; statistical findings; correlations; whether methodologies relied on perceptions or a record of actual behavior; whether subjects were inside or outside an organization; and specific calculations for each research question. Results indicated that there is no meaningful difference in the communication behaviors of male and female managers based on current quantitative findings. Furthermore, it appears that the behaviors of, or perceptions towards, female and male managers were never substantially different and have not changed over time as a result of female managers' greater involvement in the organizational environment. (Seven tables of data and 58 references are attached.) (MM)
