Multinational Business Gaming: Is Gender Important?

Johnson, Scott D.; And Others

Journal of Teaching in International Business, v8 n4 p65-82 1997

A study investigated influence of gender on undergraduate students (n=119) involved in international business games. Females tended to view the simulation as less complex, have less cohesive group structures, and show less self-confidence than males. However, game performance measures showed no significant gender differences. Implications for simulation administrators and teachers using games in international business training are discussed.
