• Mentoring Relationships From the Perspective of the Mentor (2007, result): “Still, these findings are in noticeable contrast to research based on protege reports of mentoring in which differences were reported, albeit inconsistently, across types of relationships (Chao, Walz, & Gardner, 1992; Fagenson-Eland et al., 1997; Ragins & Cotton, 1999; Scandura & Williams, 2001 ).”
• Peer Mentoring in Postsecondary Education: Implications for Research and Practice (2006, background): “Scandura and Williams (2001) contend that established assumptions of males and females are that males will be insistent and assertive and women passive when seeking out a mentor relationship.”
• Networking your way through the organization (2013, background): “Over the years, the benefits of having a mentor have received ample attention (e.g. Fagenson, 1989; Godshalk and Sosik, 2003; Higgins, 2001; Hunt and Michael, 1983; Lankau and Scandura, 2002; Scandura and Williams, 2001).”
• Factors Related to Mentor Reports of Mentoring Functions Provided: Gender and Relational Characteristics (2004, background): “In a more recent study, Scandura and Williams (2001) found that prot ´ eg ´ es in informal mentorships reported receiving more career, psychosocial, and role modeling mentoring behaviors from their mentors than did prot ´ eg ´ es in formal mentorships.”
• The Role of Interpersonal Comfort in Mentoring Relationships (2005, background): “ Scandura and Williams (2001) found that informal prote ´ge ´s reported receiving more career and role modeling mentoring behavior from their mentors than did formal prote ´ge ´s.”
• Emotional Intelligence and Trust in Formal Mentoring Programs (2010, methodology): “Previous research has demonstrated acceptable reliability and construct validity for the three-factor structure of this measure (e.g., Scandura & Ragins, 1993; Scandura & Williams, 2001).”
• Mentor Commitment in Formal Mentoring Relationships (2008, background): “Surprisingly, while mentor commitment has been discussed as an important variable in mentoring research (e.g., Scandura & Williams, 2001; Zachary, 2000), it has rarely been empirically examined.”
• Career benefits associated with mentoring for protégeé: a meta-analysis. (2004, background): “Some instruct participants to think about their current or most recent mentoring relationship (e.g., Chao et al., 1992; Scandura & Williams, 2001), some instruct participants to base their reports on the most influential mentor (e.g., Murphy & Ensher, 2001), and others ask protégés to reflect on…”
• The Mentoring Relationship Challenges Scale: The impact of mentoring stage, type, and gender (2011, result): “Previous confirmatory factor analyses have shown results for the three-factor structure for the mentoring functions scale (Scandura & Williams, 2001).”
• An Ecological Systems Perspective on Mentoring at Work: A Review and Future Prospects (2011, background): “…researchers have suggested that moderating variables such as formal versus informal relationships (O’Brien et al., 2010), gender similarity (e.g., Scandura & Williams 2001), mentor gender (Kammeyer-Mueller & Judge, 2008), and overall relationship composition (O’Brien et al., 2010) may influence…”
