Channels to the top: An exploration of sex role and information source

This study examined the relationship of employee sex and information source with perceived job autonomy, satisfaction with immediate supervisor and perceived opportunities for career advancement. In addition to the main analysis, exploratory communication profiles were constructed for female and male respondents. Multiple regression revealed no pragmatically significant differences in the prediction models for men and women; however, elementary linkage analysis indicates that discrepancies may exist between female and male perceptions of career advancement opportunities in relation to other variables.
