Gender and Scholarly Productivity in Administration in Social Work, 1977-1995
Abstract
Tests the explanatory power of the labor market segmentation theory
applied to higher education in the US by analyzing differences in the
scholarly productivity of women & men publishing in the journal
Administration in Social Work, 1977-1995. Statistically significant
gender differences were observed in publication rates, & in the
substantive focus of the articles published in the journal when men
& women authors published alone vs when they collaborated with
members of the same gender. All statistically significant differences
disappeared when controlling for the measure of the higher education
labor market. These findings indicate that gender may be a surface,
not a real, cause of observed differences in scholarly productivity in
this journal. 2 Tables, 52 References. Adapted from the source
