Although research has revealed many factors that predict faculty turnover, the literature is often limited by using intent to leave as a proxy for actual turnover, and further by consolidating faculty who leave institutions with faculty who leave the occupation. We resolve these limitations and advance the faculty mobility literature by studying…

Despite the documented negative outcomes accompanying sexual harassment, the experience of sexual harassment among STEM faculty members remains underexamined. In this paper, we explore how two sexual harassment variables--gender harassment and sexual harassment climate--are linked to four facets of faculty well-being: job burnout, turnover…

However, there is not significant data that is specific to…
