Abstract
An article by Philip Goldberg in 1968 indicated that college women evaluated articles allegedly written by men more positively than the identical articles attributed to women. Two independent studies were carried out to replicate and extend his study in order (a) to assess the degree to which males reflect a prejudice similar to that of the females and (b) to see if the female of today would be as antifemale as her counterpart in the 1960's. Results from Study I (N = 134), using male and female subjects, indicated that no significant differences were observed when author's purported sex was the independent variable. In Study II, when 145 male and female students were asked to judge a student essay, replies revealed that female subjects rated the essay as written by a female as better than the same essay as written by a male (p < .01).Keywords
