Do nice
guys finish last?

In
today’s WSJ, I report on a new study showing that men who rate themselves
highly “agreeable” tend to earn lower incomes than men who consider themselves
less cooperative.  “Mean girls” also earn more than more amenable women,
but the gap is much smaller.

The
study, “Do Nice Guys–and Gals–Really Finish Last?” by Beth A. Livingston of
Cornell University, Timothy A. Judge of the University of Notre Dame and
Charlice Hurst of the University of Western Ontario, is forthcoming in the
Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
