- Ranoua Bouchouicha & Lachlan Deer & Ashraf Galal Eid & Peter McGee & Daniel Schoch & Hrvoje Stojic & Jolanda Ygosse-Battisti & Ferdinand M. Vieider (2019): Gender effects for loss aversion: Yes, no, maybe?
Gender effects in risk taking have attracted much attention by economists, and remain debated. ... We deploy four definitions of loss aversion commonly used in the literature to investigate gender effects. Even though the definitions only differ in subtle ways, we find women to be more loss averse than men according to one definition, while another definition results in no gender differences, and the remaining two definitions point to women being less loss averse than men. Conceptually, these contradictory effects can be organized by systematic measurement error resulting from model mis-specifications relative to the true underlying decision process.

This paper replicates the gender-effect on object of loyalty found by Melnyk et al. (2009), suggesting that females are more loyal towards individuals and males are more loyal to groups and organizations.

Experimental evidence suggests that the frequency with which individuals get feedback information on their investments has an effect on risk-taking behavior. ... We also detect significant gender effects, in that the frequency with which information is disclosed mostly affects men’s betting behavior, rather than women’s, and that men are much more risk-seeking after experiencing a loss.
RePEc:ivi:wpasad:2013-05 Save to MyIDEAS - Kathryn Anderson & Richard Pomfret (2000): Gender Effects of Transition: The Kyrgyz Republic
Gender changes in the workplace during the transition from central planning are analyzed using household survey data from the Kyrgyz Republic. As the labor market became more market-driven between 1993 and 1997, mean differences by gender in labor force participation (LFP), monthly compensation and hourly wage all narrowed. We also observe gender differences in educational attainment, labor force status, occupation and industry. ... Analysis of hours worked indicates significant but declining gender differences in 1993 and 1997. Earnings regressions have greater explanatory power than the hours worked model, with wage differentials generally widening between 1993 and 1997, but the gender wage gap narrows.
RePEc:adl:wpaper:2000-08 Save to MyIDEAS - Marion Garaus & Elisabeth Wolfsteiner (2023): Media multitasking, advertising appeal, and gender effects
The investigation of gender effects in the context of media multitasking would not only provide a better understanding of the individual elements which influence brand attitude in media multitasking situations but would also guide marketers in their targeting strategies. ... To address these research gaps, the current research conducted two experimental studies to offer a new perspective on the impact of gender differences in processing styles (heuristic vs systematic processing) and their interaction with different advertising appeals (rational vs emotional appeals) on brand attitude in media single and multitasking. Study 1 employs an online experiment (gender × viewing situation × advertising appeal). ... Study 2 employs a more controlled online experiment (gender × viewing situation × advertising appeal) with a different product category. The results reveal a moderating effect on the influence of media multitasking on brand attitude, as mediated through attention toward the ad.

The present study examined the impact of gender effects on students’ accounting course performance. To facilitate the analysis of data the study divided the gender effects into two categories that might have impact on the students’ performance those are: the gender of the students and the gender of the instructors. ... After analyzing the questionnaire, the study found there is a significant difference between the gender effects of the students and their performance. On the other hand, the study found no significant difference between the instructors’ gender effects and the students’ performance. The results of the study may enlighten the accounting educators and career counselorson what is required to effectively educate both genders.

This paper examines the importance of gender on different job mobility patterns using an extensive household survey data from İzmir, third largest city in Turkey. ... The results indicate that there is a distinction regarding the probability of job mobility patterns based on gender. ... Although gender plays a significant role regarding job mobility patterns, traditionally imposed social constraints associated with childcare and household duties provide us with mixed results considering the behavior of women in the job market.
RePEc:pra:mprapa:46006 Save to MyIDEAS - Annie Miller & Toru Yamamori & Almaz Zelleke & Malcolm Torry (2019): The Gender Effects of a Basic Income
Miller, Yamamori and Zelleke explore the gender effects of a Basic Income through a survey of feminist theories of distributive justice, critiques of the gendered effects of welfare state policies, welfare claimants’ movements in the UK and US, and empirical evidence from cash transfer pilots. They examine debates over the potential emancipatory effects of a Basic Income for women, concerns about its effects on the gendered division of labour, and evidence of increased well-being, especially for women and girls, exhibited by Negative Income Tax and cash transfer experiments. They conclude that the effects of a Basic Income are likely to be positive for women and men across a range of measures, while specific outcomes would depend on the details of any particular Basic Income scheme.
RePEc:pal:etbchp:978-3-030-23614-4_8 Save to MyIDEAS - Haucap, Justus & Müller, Andrea (2014): Nature, nurture, and gender effects in a simple trust game
We analyze the behavior of 577 economics and law students in a simple binary trust experiment. While economists are both significantly less trusting and less trustworthy than law students, this difference is largely due to differences between female law and economics students. While female law students are already different in nature (during the first term of study) from female economists, the gap between them also widens more drastically over the course of their study compared to their male counterparts. This finding is rather critical as the detailed composition of students is typically neglected in most experiments.
