Description The Committee on the Status of Women in the Management Profession commissioned this study to obtain information about the education, professional status, and career development of persons in, or desiring to enter, the management profession. This study investigated the professional status of 90 male and 81 female Academy of Management members.



In March of 1975, a questionnaire was mailed to all 175 females listed in the "1975-1976 Academy of Management Membership Directory." Responses were received from 81 women. In February 1976, a similar form was mailed to a random sample of 175 male members. Ninety usable questionnaires were returned.


The variables assessed in the questionnaires include: (1) perceptions about relative salary and promotion status; (2) recent job search behavior and results; (3) impact of
the women's movement on respondent's professional life; (4) feelings about and perceptions of the professional environment and its opportunities for female Academy members; and (5) age and salary levels.
