Abstract
The following study investigates the separate and combined effects of rater sex and ratee sex on performance evaluations. A 2 x 2 multivariate analysis of variance was performed to ascertain the effects of rater and ratee sex on seven performance appraisal measures. Results indicate the female raters provided higher ratings than did male raters, and female ratees received higher ratings than did male ratees. There was no interaction of rater and ratee sex. The findings are discussed within the context of the gender contrast effect where women are overvalued relative to men.
