Pandemic Impact on Research Faculty in Academic Medicine: A Mixed Method Study
Get PDFIntroduction: This mixed-method study sought to elucidate the impact of COVID-19 on the professional environments and career trajectories of midcareer research faculty in U.S. medical schools.
Methods: Participants were 40 midcareer medical school faculty enrolled in the Brandeis University C-Change Mentoring and Leadership Institute, a group peer mentoring career development course being tested in a National Institutes of Health-funded randomized controlled trial.
Results: We observed a gender disparity in both the quantitative and qualitative data, with women faculty describing COVID-19 more negatively impacting their career trajectory. This negative impact was independent of having children in the home. Participants largely reported no change in their commitment to conducting research or interest in applying for research funding. A total of 54% of faculty reported no effect of the pandemic on their relationships with colleagues (n = 21) and 33% reported a negative effect (n = 13). A trend emerged when examining the data by degree, however, with PhD faculty about twice as likely as physicians to report a negative effect of the pandemic on their relationship with colleagues (47% n = 9 vs. 20% n = 4, respectively). The ordinal test on the 5-point scale approached statistical significance but did not meet the standard 0.05 cut-off (p value = 0.06; Z-value = -1.86).
Conclusions: While faculty initially reported some positive outcomes of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in their own experiences in April 2020, their experiences 1 year later reflected negative impacts of the pandemic on career trajectory, especially for women, and on relationships with colleagues, with a higher intensity signal for PhD scientists
Ranking Electric Utility Companies for Smart Meter Adoption: Empirical Evidence From the United States
No full textThe reliability of a power distribution system reflects its ability to supply uninterrupted electricity. The installation of smart meters improves reliability by minimizing outages and expediting restoration. Smart meters enhance efficient energy use, balance supply and demand, and strengthen system reliability. This study applies a simultaneous equations model and a modified Hyperlink Induced Topic Search algorithm to analyze the relationship between federal funding, smart meter adoption by electric utilities, and reliability, aiming to rank electric utility companies in the United States. Results show positive associations between federal funding and smart meter adoption rates, as well as between smart meter adoption rates and system reliability. The proposed network-based methodology ranks electric utility companies by ownership type. The research findings underscore the significance of smart meter adoption and provide valuable insights for policymakers and electric utility companies seeking to enhance power system reliability. © 2025 IGI Global
The Fog of Classism: Where Middle-Class White Parents of Young White Children May Get Lost in Their Antiracist Parenting Aspirations
No full textAspiring antiracist White parents report feeling stuck and uncertain about how to socialize their young White children into antiracism. Most of the scholarship focused on this population, their ideas, and practices overlooks the intersection of their class positionalities with their attitudes and behaviors regarding antiracist parenting. The present study offers insights into the dynamics of class-related beliefs and antiracist socialization among middle-to upper-middle-class White parents. Using methods informed by critical thematic analysis, we interrogated the in-depth interviews of 19 White parents of young White children who self-identified as antiracist. All parents in the sample identified as middle class, and all but one parent identified as women. We find that, despite the sincere intentions of this group, these parents, through rhetorical and behavioral processes, ultimately evade acknowledging for themselves and with their children the material ways in which their families benefit from and maintain an unjust status quo. We describe three interrelated themes that characterize the prevailing patterns of ideas and behaviors among our parent participants on this subject: class confusion, class attribution error, and complexity avoidance. We argue that these patterns reflect the embeddedness of these parents within the dominant racial and class regimes of contemporary U.S. society: White supremacy and neoliberalism. Our discussion highlights the inconsistencies and contradictions in our participants’ beliefs and practices and highlights ideological blinders that antiracist interventions can address to help parents counteract the influence of these systems and more fully realize their antiracist parenting goals. © 2025 Global Alliance for Behavioral Health and Social Justic
