Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.

89 APPENDIX B: Trend Tables, 1986-1996 Appendix B includes the following two tables: B- ~ Number of Doctorate Recipients, by Subfield, ~ 986- ~ 996 B-2 Number of Doctorate Recipients, by Gender, Race/Ethnicity, and Citizenship, 1977, 1981, and 1986-1996 TABLE Bet: Table B-l presents data for the most recent decade by subfield of doctorate. In general, the subf~elds correspond to the fields on the questionnaire's Specialties List located at the back of this report; some, however, do not appear on the current Specialties List because they are no longer included in the survey taxonomy. A dash (-) in a column indicates that the field was not on the Specialties List for that year. Field groupings in this table may differ from those in reports published by federal sponsors of the Survey of Earned Doctorates (SED); see inside the back cover for a description of field groupings as reported in these tables. The "general" field categories for example, "chemistry, general" include individuals who either received the doctorate in the general subject area or did not indicate a particular specialty field. The "other" field categories- for example, "chemistry, other"- include individuals whose specified doctoral discipline was not among the specialty fields. The seven tables in Appendix A present additional information on the most recent cohort of Ph.D.s by field] of doctorate. TABLE B-2: Table B-2 displays, by gender and citizenship, data on the race/ethnicity of doctorate recipients for 1977, 1981, and the past clecade. Table B-2 contains three panels, each displayed on a separate page. The first pane] includes all doctorates; the others disaggregate the data by gender. The reader should note that numbers in Table B-2 have been revised since publication of Summary Report 1995. Because of late questionnaire returns and responses to follow-ups for missing information, data are subject to revision in fheyear after survey closure. New follow-up procedures implemented ir' 1990 and lafer years have increased coverage of several variables, including citizenship arid raceJethnicity. One result has been greater postsurvey adjustment to racial/ethnic data than in earlier years. (Note: The greatest adjustment was to the numbers of black Ph.D.s in 1990 and 1991~n increase of about 7.5 percent each year.) Updates to 1995 racial/ethnic data are shown in Table B-2 in this year 's report. The racial/ethnic question has undergone several revisions over the years. in ~ 977 it was modified to correspond to a standard question format recommended by the Federal Interagency Committee on Education and adopted by the Office of Management ant] Budget

go (OMB) for use in federally sponsored surveys; an explanation of the effect of these changes is detailed on page 13 of Summary Report 1977. (Note: Changes in the OMB guidelines prompted the moving of persons having origins in the Indian subcontinent from the white category to the Asian category.) In 1980 the item was further revised in two ways: (~) the Hispanic category was subdivided into Puerto Rican, Mexican American, and other Hispanic to provide more detail for users of the racial/ethnic data, and (2) respondents were asked to check only one racial category. (Before 1980 doctorate recipients could check more than one category to indicate their race.) The item was modified again in ~ 982 to separate the questions on race and ethnicity. Since then respondents have been asked to first check one of the four racial group categories (American Indian, Asian, black, or white) and then indicate whether or not they are Hispanic. In Table B-2, Ph.D.s who reported Hispanic heritage, regardless of racial designation, are counted as Hispanic. The remaining survey respondents are then counted in their respective racial groups. (Note: Doctorate recipients who checked the category "American Indian or Alaskan Native" are identified as American Indian in this report.) Tables A-2 and A-4 in Appendix A present additional information on the most recent cohort of Ph.D.s by race/ethnicity.
