The Academic Achievement of Undergraduate Women in Physics.

Clay, R. W.

Physics Education, v17 n5 p232-34 Sep 1982

The relative performance of men and women in physics courses at the University of Adelaide was investigated. Apart from first year work, there seems to be little difference between the performance of men and women despite an almost uniform ratio of about 10:1 in numbers in favor of men. (Author/JN)
