JILL BARSHAY, Hechinger Report
In a Swiss experiment, women assigned to male-dominated study groups were more likely to drop an economics class. As part of an introductory economics class, Swiss students had the option to work in study groups with their peers. Behind the scenes, a researcher randomly assigned them to groups with different gender ratios. Something interesting happened when a female was the sole woman and the other three group members were men: she was 10 percentage points more likely to drop the course.
