a question

[Cecilia E. Ford]

Virginia Valian's 1999 book, Why So Slow,has a chapter reviewing social 
psych. research revealing bias in the evaluation of women vs. men. In 
most cases, other variables were controlled for. Such findings 
complicate any claims that women's fear contributes to our 
underrepresentation in leadership positions.
