1. DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? Gendered Differences in Interviewer Assessment

2. 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)

3. 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)

4. 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)

5. 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)

6. Pilot Study. Empirical Question: Does gender have an effect on interviewer assessment.

7. Pilot Study. Empirical Question: Does gender have an effect on interviewer assessment. Sample: ~50 observations from ~20 Interviewers (About 3 data points per Interviewer.)

8. 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.

9. 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.

27. 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. Slides and Code available: Home.uchicago.edu/~/dgourdin/Do_You_See/
