Note(s): The regression results for the first step of Heckman’s two-stage analysis are presented in this table. L_Gender denotes the number of female directors in one lag period, whereas Aver_Gender is the number of female directors in the same industry in the same period. Gender is a dummy variable that equal to 1 if there are female directors in the company and 0 if otherwise. The t-values are given in parentheses next to the coefficients. All variables are defined in  Appendix 1. ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1
