Model 1: All models included gender and were adjusted for race (white vs. minority). Additionally, candidate variables included in the backward selection process were: specialty (generalists, medical specialists, surgical specialists, and basic scientist faculty), seniority (years since first faculty appointment), effort distribution, marital status, and parental status. The covariates retained were: Rank – race, specialty, and seniority; retention – race and specialty; senior leadership position – race.
Model 2: The number of refereed publications in 1995 was added to Model 1.
