A Content Analysis of Test Bank Questions
Randi L. Sims
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the content of test banks which accompany Management Education texts for gender equity. Findings, from a content analysis of seventeen books, indicate that test questions refer to males in the examples nearly two-thirds of the time. In addition, female managers were referred to by their first name only significantly more often than male managers. Suggestions for management instructors are provided.
