Issues to Consider in Conducting Nonsexist Psychological Research: A Guide for Researchers.
McHugh, Maureen C.; And Others
American Psychologist, v41 n8 p879-90 Aug 1986
Three major barriers to sex fair research are the following: (1) excessive confidence in traditional methods of research; (2) bias in explanatory systems; and (3) inappropriate conceptualization and operationalization. Sex bias in research must be eliminated and critical discussion that challenges sex bias must be stimulated in psychology. (Author/VM)
