Abstract
This project will examine the ability of human capital and internal
labor market theories to account for sex inequities in the education profession.
The project will also examine the impact of the women's movement
and equal employment legislation on sex differences in educational career
patterns. Data from the Oregon State Department of Education will be used
to trace the careers of men and women who were newly hired teachers in
1967-68. The effect of entry position and of education and continuity of
experience on career achievements will be studied using transition matrices
and regression equations. In addition, using the population of all Oregon
educators, the probability of women moving into administration in the late
1960's will be compared with the probability of such moves in the late 1970's.
The results of this research will be reported in a monograph along with other
work currently being conducted in this area by the principal investigator.
