Children and the Productivity of Academic Women

Hamovitch, William; Morgenstern, Richard D.

Journal of Higher Education, 48, 6, 633-45, Nov/Dec 77

Statistical findings show that (1) women faculty publish somewhat less than men; (2) there is no evidence that child rearing is related to the number of publications of academic women; and (3) there is no evidence that child rearing decreases the probability of a woman academic being classified as "outstanding" by her peers.
