Power Differentials Between Genders
This study was completed to show how each gender responds to the display of power by resident assistants at a university. An experiment was conducted that included 10 students who lived on campus. An original hypothesis stated that female students would respond positively when asked to complete a task, whereas male students would respond positively when ordered to complete a task. After conducting the study, data confirmed the hypothesis for females but wasn’t supported for males.
