Autonomy and satisfaction among mammographers.

This article reports results of a study assessing the relationship between decision autonomy and task satisfaction in Texas mammographers. As hypothesized, the results indicate a positive correlation between autonomy and satisfaction. The authors also found that no independent variable (age, years of experience, employment status, position or type of imaging facility) had predictive value for mammographers' autonomy and task satisfaction.

Gender-related biases in admission decisions.

This study tested the effects of applicant gender and attractiveness on admission ratings, personality attributions and causal attributions in the student admission decision-making process in allied health education. The study showed that although gender stereotypes are very strong, they did not affect admission ratings. However, the study did reveal that attractive candidates received higher admission ratings than unattractive applicants and the past successes of attractive applicants were more likely attributed to internal causes while the past successes of unattractive applicants were more often attributed to external causes.
