Title Gender, nursing and the PBRF Type Journal Article
Year 2006 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 22 Issue 2 Pages 4-11
Keywords Research; Sex discrimination; Administration; Education
Abstract The authors examine gender based disparities for academics with respect to remuneration, academic grading and Perfomance Based Research Fund (PBRF) scores, whereby women do less well than men in each of these areas. In this article individualised explanations for the failure of women to progress are set in the context of a critical exploration of the PBRF evaluation methodology. It is argued that both academia and the PBRF research assessment exercise embody a form of academic masculinity that systematically disadvantages women in general and nursing in particular.
