Abstract

This research examines graduate student's views on the professional climate in economics using a comprehensive survey of students enrolled in economics Ph.D. programs in the United States. Topics discussed include stress and work/life balance, disciplinary climate in the profession, departmental climate, and the prevalence of sexual harassment. We find significant gender differences in views on all four topics—particularly in views on departmental climate and disciplinary climate in the profession. We analyze the results based on gender, rank of the institution, public versus private institutional status, and representation of women faculty in departments.

研究生对经济学专业氛围看法的性别差异

本研究通过对在美国攻读经济学博士学位的学生进行全面调查，研究了研究生对经济学专业氛围的看法。讨论的话题包括压力和工作/生活平衡、专业纪律氛围、系里氛围以及性骚扰的普遍程度。我们发现，在对所有四个话题的看法上，性别差异都很大，尤其是在对系风和专业学科风气的看法上。我们根据性别、院校级别、公立与私立院校地位以及女教师在院系中的代表性对结果进行了分析。
