Carol Tavris is the author of which book critiquing gender biases in measurement?

• A. The Mismeasure of Woman.
• B. The Feminine Mystique.
• C. Outliers.
• D. The Selfish Gene.

Answer: (A)

Focusing on how measurement and research methods can reflect and reinforce gender bias is being tested here. The Mismeasure of Woman by Carol Tavris directly tackles this issue, showing how tests, scales, and the way questions are framed have often been biased against women. Tavris analyzes how such biases can lead to misleading conclusions about women's abilities and behavior, and she argues for more rigorous, objective approaches to measurement and interpretation. The other books don't center on gender-biased measurement: The Feminine Mystique explores women's roles and dissatisfaction in society; Outliers looks at patterns behind success; The Selfish Gene discusses evolution.
