Leimer, Christina
Online Submission, Presented at the Annual Association for Institutional Research Forum (47th, Kansas City, MO, June 2-6, 2007)
HERI Faculty Surveys administered in Fall 1998 and Spring 2005 at California State University-Fresno were analyzed to assess change in faculty satisfaction, stress, and perceived importance of University priorities by academic rank, gender, and race/ethnicity. Each survey sample was weighted to match its population then analyzed separately using T-Tests and ANOVA. Responses were then combined to assess change during this six-year period. Findings show differences between the academic ranks are widening. Change has been positive for women and faculty of color, but distinctions remain by gender and race/ethnicity. (Contains 12 tables.)
