We're pleased to announce that the first paper from the "Family and the Field" study is out in open access journal PLoS ONE. This was a collaboration between me, Dr. Michaela Howells of UNCW, and our newly minted HBERG PhD Max Stein. The first set of findings from this massive set of survey data indicates: 
  • Most professional and graduate student anthropologists come from households with at least one graduate degree.
  • White men are more likely to become tenured professors, despite larger numbers of women entering anthropology (for decades running, according to recent paper by Trudy Turner and colleagues!). 
  • Anthropologists report significant lack of family-career balance and high stress (see figure above) regardless of socioeconomic status or background.
