Indicators of Academic Excellence: Is There a Link between Merit and Reward?

Allen, F. C. L.

Australian Journal of Education, v34 n1 p87-98 Apr 1990

A longitudinal study examined the association between academic merit (e.g., educational attainment and publications) and career patterns for 51 female and 56 male senior academics at an Australian university. Findings did not support the model of success by merit nor that women have lower formal qualifications or publish less than men of similar rank. (MLW)
