From the author: The present study examines the influence of the personality construct of self-monitoring on gender related biases in personnel selection decisions. Selection and starting salary decisions were made by subjects in one of two formats, where decision making involved using a comparative strategy or a noncomparative decision making strategy. Regardless of the decision strategy, high self-monitors, relative to low self-monitors were found to offer higher starting salaries to applicants who were gender appropriate for the job.
