Examined are several factors related to regional variations in the number of energy-related scientists and engineers and how this subgroup differs from the base group of scientists and engineers. The emphasis of this research project was to determine the influence of regional differences in industry mix and in staffing patterns within industries…

This monograph examines the content and quality of counselor education programs and activities in both preservice and inservice training. It describes selected preservice programs and discussed the components that make them effective. It then presents various theoretical training models, with recommendations for innovative techniques that…

AS PART OF AN EXPERIMENTAL AND DEMONSTRATION PROJECT LAUNCHED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR IN 1965 TO EMPHASIZE LIKELY FUTURE TECHNOLOGICAL AND MANPOWER CHANGES, THIS STUDY OF THE DESIGN AND DRAFTING PROCESS AIMED TO IDENTIFY THE MAJOR TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS, TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT AND RATE OF DIFFUSION OF THESE CHANGES, AND TO…

Tables and charts developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor illustrate: (1) trends in employment, (2) proportion of workers in white collar, blue collar, service, and farm jobs, (3) membership in unions, (4) areas of rapid job growth, (5) percent change in employment by industry, (6) occupational trends, (7)…

This report provides information about the number and characteristics of doctoral level engineers and scientists in primarily energy-related activities for 1975. The data included are part of an attempt to monitor the supply and demand of energy technology professionals. Chapter titles which indicate the types and arrangement of data are: (1)…

It appears that although women are not achieving the numbers in the doctoral fields that many think appropriate, their attrition rate in the educational system is generally going down, whereas that for men is generally going up. However, the employment picture for doctoral women does not appear to be generally improving. (Author)

The purpose of the study is to help fill the present gap in our knowledge of the internal labor market, and particularly of the internal mobility patterns of low income workers. Through the analysis of data from two samples, one drawn from New York City and the other from the entire nation, the document explores the determinants of worker…

The retention of qualified faculty is an important factor in maintaining the identity and professional climate of a medical school. In studying faculty mobility from the institutional point of view, data on faculty attrition is closely examined. A faculty coefficient for each medical school was determined by the ratio of the number of salaried…

Although limited in scope, census data still provide the best general indexes of social change in the United States and where comparable categories over time periods exist the data can provide the basis for making decisions relevant to anticipated changes in the future. Changes from rural to urban residence among blacks in various age groups are…

This volume is the third in a series based on a national sample of women who were 30-44 years of age when they first interviewed in mid-1967. The data for this third report were derived from personal interviews conducted in the summer of 1971. The report focuses on two problems which women in the labor force are likely to encounter, the first…

Highlights from the analysis are: (1) a continuing decrease in the number of physics bachelor's degrees granted; (2) a small increase in the percentage of bachelor's degree recipients who become graduate physics students; (3) a further increase in the proportion of first-year graduate physics students who are assured of teaching assistantships;…

This study is concerned with the position of women on the social science faculties in the graduate divison of the University of Chicago. The history and experience of several women faculty members in the various social science departments is reviewed. A few generalizations can be drawn: (1) few women are hired and few stay more than the length of…

To assist in the evaluation of future employment and population growth for the State of Tennessee, this two-part report presents both State-wide and regional projections. The State-wide projections are divided into population, labor force, occupational, and industrial projections. In order to show the population and manpower situations which would…

The purpose of this study is to explain the changing and increasing participation of females in the American labor force during this century, especially since 1940. Although the pre-1940 changes are smaller and may be attributable to improvements in census enumeration techniques, there has been a significant increase since 1940 in participation…

While individuals from outside Alaska are recruited at premium pay, attracted with various monetary incentives, the Alaska Native experiences an extremely high rate of population increase which constitutes a virtually wasted labor reservoir. This study is intended as a benchmark approach against which the rate of progress of the Alaska Native…
