    Meta-Analysis: Call for Unpublished Data on

    the Effects of Quotas and Targets for Women in Leadership

     

     

    The Centre for Ethical Leadership is currently conducting a meta-analysis focussing on the use and effects of targets, quotas and other preferential treatment for women in leadership roles.

     

    We are conducting an exhaustive search of the published literature, and are now making a call to gather findings that are unpublished, or soon to be published. We are also interested in unpublished thesis data.

     

    Specifically, we are interested in studies that explore any of the following areas: 

     

    1.      The effects of quotas/targets/preferential treatment/opportunity enhancements on the female leader

    2.      The effects on the colleagues of female leaders who are hired to comply with quotas/targets preferential treatment/opportunity enhancements

    3.      The effects of quotas/targets/ preferential treatment/opportunity enhancements on the industry or business that implement them

     

    If you believe your study qualifies for inclusion, we are requesting details about the characteristics of your sample, study design, independent and dependent variables and the associated means and standard deviation or variances of the groups in the dependent variables. The associated effects sizes are also desirable.

     

    Alternatively, we would be happy if you can provide us with your data and any information required to determine how the variables might be coded.

     

    We will only use the data for the purpose of the meta-analysis and we will delete the data afterward.

     

    You can contribute your unpublished data via email to vsojo@cel.edu.au. Similarly, if you have any questions about this study, please do not hesitate to get in contact.

     

    Thank you for the assistance and contribution to our work. We will gladly send you a copy of the meta-analysis once it is published.

     

    Best regards,
