Understanding Racial Differences on Cognitive Ability Tests in Selection Contexts: An Integration of Stereotype Threat and Applicant Reactions Research (2003, methodology): “Overall, the mean difference (in SD units) between these groups was d = 1.18, a finding slightly higher, but largely consistent with the previous research on subgroup differences in cognitive ability tests (Jensen, 1998; Roth et al., 2001).”
Emotional intelligence: an integrative meta-analysis and cascading model. (2010, result): “Comparing these results to subgroup differences on cognitive ability, current estimates (within medium complexity jobs) suggest that Whites' average scores on cognitive ability measures are .72 standard deviations above Blacks' average scores (Roth, Bevier, Bobko, Switzer, & Tyler, 2001).”
Investigating the Uniqueness and Usefulness of Proactive Personality in Organizational Research: A Meta-Analytic Review (2015, methodology): “This measure has been used in other recent meta-analyses examining group differences (e.g., Foldes et al., 2008; Roth et al., 2001) in part because the value of the d statistic plays a large role in determining subgroup hiring rate, for a given selection ratio (Roth et al., 2001).”
Construct Validity of Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices for African and Non-African Engineering Students in South Africa (2004, unknown): “A meta-analytic review by Roth, Bevier, Bobko, Switzer III, and Tyler (2001) showed it also holds for college and university application tests such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT; N 52.4 million) and the Graduate Record Examination (GRE; N 52.3 million), as well as for tests for job applican”
Estimating State IQ: Measurement Challenges and Preliminary Correlates. (2006, background): “However, there are large mean racial differences in IQ (Roth et al., 2001) and these differences manifest themselves in the state-level data.”
