- W2096987098 abstract "Groups collectively make many economic decisions. Corporate boards select CEOs or developstrategic plans. School boards hire superintendents and develop policies. Here I study ways gender may inflence such group decisions. In Chapter 1, I study the formation of elected groups in an environment where females are well represented. Using California school board elections data, I estimate the electorate's response to either an additional male or female serving on the school board. I find that a female (male) winning the current election - and thus sitting on the board - increases the number of males (females) elected in the next cycle. I hypothesize the electorate has a preferred board gender composition it seeks to maintain. This result highlights that electoral environmentswith high-female representation may be substantially different from the previously studied low-female representation environments because in the former case voters have greater experience with female officeholders. In Chapter 2, I use the same school board data and study whether increased female representation on a school board affects a district's academic performance. I find that increasing the number of female board members has a positive impact on academic performance for districts failing to meet state requirements. I also show gender in fact in influences how a school board executes its duty of monitoring the superintendent. For failing school districts, boards with more females are less likely to experience a superintendent separation. Lastly, in Chapter 3, I use an experimental design to study gender interactions within groups evaluating males and females competing against one another in a task. I elicit individual group members' evaluations and then groups' collective evaluations of the competitors. Consistent with studies of observational data, I find only groups with either low or high numbers of females tend to favor the male competitor. By mapping individuals to group decisions, I find this is partially explained by females being less likely to influence the group decision if they disagree a priori with the majority opinion." @default.
