Using original, nationally representative survey data (N=4,321), we compare Latino evangelicals and Ca…
The very ivory tower
We theorized that income racial-ethnic stratification among academic scientists is perpetuated by inequality of scientific capital including institutional prestige, research funding, publishing, and tenure. We tested our model with original survey data of US biologists and physicists (n = 1,160).
