“…V. Abramowitz & Dokecki, 1977, p. 460; italics added) The interpretive gerrymandering that has plagued this literature is linked to an unwillingness to be open about the sex role heritage of research strategies themselves and the deep personal and political investments at stake. (Davidson & Abramowitz, 1980, p. 377; italics added)Indeed, it does not seem unfair to remark that sex bias researchers often seemed to proceed as if there was nothing more to sex than bias.

This paper illustrates the impact of the human element in the scientific process by presenting the history of Broverman, Broverman, Clarkson, Rosenkrantz, and Vogel (1970), one of the most highly cited papers in psychology. Broverman et al. stimulated remarkable interest in sex bias among mental health professionals. Several articles published in major psychology journals demonstrated the paper's fatal flaws in the 2 decades following its publication. Nonetheless, Broverman et al. was accepted with little resistance. Broverman et al. continues to be cited as empirical support for the sex bias hypothesis among mental health professionals.

“…Notably, while this review considered a broad range of health professions, none of the identified studies included allied health professionals. Several older reviews have explored the role of racial, socioeconomic status, sex and gender biases in clinical psychotherapeutic evaluations, and also discuss the methodological challenges of confirming the presence of these biases [ 29 – 32 ]. However, there is no existing review that explicitly searched for literature that included a test to determine whether decisions made by allied health professionals were influenced by cognitive, affective or other biases.…”

Decision making biases in the allied health professions: A systematic scoping review

et al. 2020

Objectives Cognitive and other biases can influence the quality of healthcare decision making. While substantial research has explored how biases can lead to diagnostic or other errors in medicine, fewer studies have examined how they impact the decision making of other healthcare professionals. This scoping review aimed to identify and synthesise a broad range of research investigating whether decisions made by allied health professionals are influenced by cognitive, affective or other biases.
