On the basis of an article concerning the dogmatic tendencies of teachers, 20 studies dealing with the personality of teachers and supervisory ratings were reexamined. Factor analysis of a popular personality measure (CPI) was used as a means of organizing these studies. It would seem that, to an undetermined extent, results of studies in the area of the personality of teachers have been influenced by a biased criterion.

Yarkoni (2020) highlights patterns of overgeneralization in psychology research. In this comment, we note that such challenges also pertain to applied psychological and organizational research and prac-tice. We use two examples—cross-cultural generalizability and implicit bias training—to illustrate common practices of overgeneralization from narrow research samples to broader operational popula-tions. We conclude with recommendations for research and practice.
