DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?
Gendered Differences in Interviewer Assessment
Systematic Assessments of Physical Space.
Social scientist have taken an interest in how the physical ordering of space plays a role in social and economic
development.
• (Raudenbush, Reiss and Sampson 1995; Sampson and Raudenbush 1999; Odgers et. al. 2012)
Systematic Assessments of Physical Space.
• The theoretical concerns for measuring physical space have remained relatively constant.
• (Raudenbush, Reiss and Sampson 1995; Sampson and Raudenbush 1999; Odgers et. al. 2012)
Systematic Assessments of Physical Space.
• The methods for assessing physical space have varied.
• (Raudenbush, Reiss and Sampson 1995; Sampson and Raudenbush 1999; Odgers et. al. 2012)
Systematic Assessments of Physical Space.
• Inter-rater reliability and measurement validity have been a consistent problem in assessing social and physical characteristics of space.
• (See: Gordon et. al 2013; Armstrong et. al 1997)
• (Raudenbush, Reiss and Sampson 1995; Sampson and Raudenbush 1999; Odgers et. al. 2012)
Pilot Study.• Empirical Question:• Does gender have an effect on interviewer assessment.
Pilot Study.• Empirical Question:• Does gender have an effect on interviewer assessment.
• Sample:• ~50 observations from ~20 Interviewers• (About 3 data points per Interviewer.)
Pilot Study.• Empirical Question:• Does gender have an effect on interviewer assessment.
• Sample:• ~50 observations from ~20 Interviewers• (About 3 data points per Interviewer.)
• Interviewers Demographics:• Mid-to-late 20’s; Upper-middle class; MA at a private mid-
west University.

• Training and Calibration:• Rigorously trained twice a week for an hour and half by a well qualified
faculty member; six weeks of training prior to going into the field.

Method(s)• Created a gender indicator based on interviewer’s name.• Created a Physical Assessment Scale based on iaq1_1-
iaq1_8. • Weighted Male response to represent population. (Men
are under represented)• Regressed on the Physical Assessment Scale.
