Dear Colleagues,
My co-authors, Juan Batarse and Christopher Berry, and I are requesting data that we can use in a meta-analysis of Hispanic-White mean differences in measures of job performance. We have done a thorough search of the published literature. Although we all often collect data on race/ethnicity when we do primary studies on job performance, race/ethnicity analyses often aren't included in the published paper. So, we suspect that many of you may have old datasets that include a measure of job performance (any measure, including overall performance, task performance, OCB, CWB, work sample, even turnover or training performance) and a measure of race/ethnicity. Even if there are only 5 or 10 Hispanic employees in your dataset, that is another data point that could be added to our meta-analysis. If you would share the following with us for any such datasets, it would make the results of our meta-analysis much more robust and we would be incredibly grateful. We would need as many of the following pieces of information as possible:
1. Name and/or description of job performance measure
2. The sources of the rating (e.g., supervisor, peer, or self) if the job performance measure is subjective
3. Job title(s) for the employees
4. White job performance mean
5. White job performance standard deviation
6. White sample size
7. Hispanic job performance mean
8. Hispanic job performance standard deviation
9. Hispanic sample size
10. The citation you prefer we use for the data you provided
Thank you so much!
