Always trying Googling the title of the study plus PDF. Here you go:

Disclaimer: I don't know what right the UCCS has to host this PDF since neither of the authors is affiliated with the university, so if you don’t feel comfortable using it, I understand.

Dear all,
One of my colleagues passed around this New York Times article on gender roles in the workplace.
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/08/opinion/sunday/sheryl-sandberg-and-adam-grant-on-women-doing-office-housework.html?ref=opinion&_r=1

In the article they refer to a study in the Journal of Applied Psychology, in the following paragraph:

In a study led by the New York University psychologist Madeline Heilman, participants evaluated the performance of a male or female employee who did or did not stay late to help colleagues prepare for an important meeting. For staying late and helping, a man was rated 14 percent more favorably than a woman. When both declined, a woman was rated 12 percent lower than a man. Over and over, after giving identical help, a man was significantly more likely to be recommended for promotions, important projects, raises and bonuses. A woman had to help just to get the same rating as a man who didn’t help.

I was interested in using this data during class, but the only way to access the data is to pay $12 for the article.  Does anyone have the data that led to the above values that we could use in a simulation experiment?

Thanks for your help,
Kevin
