Abstract

Matched-pair samples (N= 174) of women and men faculty at doctoral-level universities and at traditionally women's colleges responded to a questionnaire in ways indicating (a) that at universities or colleges, women equal their male colleagues' time investments in writing and males' rates of publishing journal articles; (b) that at women's colleges, men and women devoted about half as much time to writing, devote about twice as much time to teaching, and publish articles at half the rate of their university counterparts; (c) and that, in either setting, women experience more discomfort about pressures to publish, feel more adversely affected by harsh reviewers, and report less confidence with their writing than do men, especially men at universities.
