The OP mention it is the same text which is rated differently depending on the gender of the author.

This was one of the few factors we kept the same- same text.

I think if it had been a larger study (not a one credit class run by 4 undergrads but an actual study with funding) we might have had multiple texts and randomized them, but we had one text- I don't even remember what the topic was.
