Multiple regression procedure was performed. This time gender was added after entering frequency and severity into the equation. The addition of gender created significantly better prediction of CP than frequency and severity alone (R212.3 = .192, p < .002) (see Table 4). This result lends some support to the hypothesis of gender bias in CP. A multiple regression analysis was also performed to investigate the overall strength of the relationship of CP and the variables of interest using a stepwise procedure, in which predictors were entered in descending predictive order (i.e., best predictor first). These four variables yielded an R2 of .217. Most of the variance in CP administration is left unaccounted for by these variables. Again, the frequency of referral and severity of violation were nonsignificant predictors of CP, whereas gender and race were significant predictors

The bias accounted from 22% of the variances between the groups receiving CP. The author says it is practically unsignificant....
