According to a recent study from the Centre for Economic Policy Research, multiple-choice questions may be negatively affecting women’s test-taking performance among the most high-achieving test takers. Multiple-choice tests are frequently used in graduate school admissions and job applications, however their validity in accurately measuring knowledge and ability is often criticized. Previous research has found men are more likely than women to engage in risk-taking behavior. This behavior can result in men being more willing to take a guess on a multiple-choice question rather than omit it.

I recently attended a press event and noticed that men far outweighed women at the event, and according to a new report, that applies at the leadership level, too. The research from the talent acquisition company Tenth Revolution Group was sent to Lifewire via email and shows that between 2021 and 2024, the average percentage of women and non-binary people in C-suite leadership roles (specifically CIOs and CTOs) in NASDAQ-100 tech companies was only 15 percent. Now, that's based on four years of figures, during which there was a slight bump in 2022 when women held 17 percent of those C-Suite positions. In the remaining years (2021, 2023, and 2024), women held only 14 percent of those positions.
