From page 100... ... The programs not evaluated on measures 12, 13, and 14 are typically smaller -- in terms of faculty size and graduate student enrollment -- than other microbiology programs. Were data on these three measures available for all 134 programs, it is likely that their reported means would be appreciably lower (and that some of the correlations of these measures with others would be higher) Read the entire page →
From page 101... ... Two-thirds of the survey participants had earned their highest degree prior to 1970, and exactly half held the rank of full professor. To assist the reader in interpreting results of the survey evaluations, estimated standard errors have been computed for mean ratings of the scholarly quality of faculty in 131 microbiology programs {and are given in Table 6.11.
