Earnings Profiles of Department Heads: Comparing Cross-Sectional and Panel Models.

Ragan, James F., Jr.; Rehman, Qazi Najeeb

Industrial and Labor Relations Review, v49 n2 p256-72 Jan 1996

A cross-sectional study of 842 faculty who served as department heads between 1965-92 was compared with 170 in a panel study for whom earnings were estimated using a personal effects model. The average chair received a 12% wage premium for administrative service. Skill depreciation was most severe and wage growth most adversely affected in the sciences. (SK)
