Yes they have.
In any statistic, you can introduce bias (many times without even knowing), the most common one being selection bias.
For example, I'd bet that the results for this research done on men coming from fields that are male-dominated (like engineering, finance), are totally different from the results of men coming from female-dominated fields.
