Theory: A model of organizational regeneration produced 1990 forecasts of the gender composition of the state and local government workforce that were at odds with the actual results for 1990. Hypotheses: The errors arise from changing government practices rather than from errors in the model per se. Methods: More recent data are examined to identify possible changes in the model's parameters. Results: The rates at which women enter or leave state and local government jobs have indeed changed, resulting in the model's erroneous forecasts. These changes also suggest continued growth of female representation among officials and administrators, but little improvement for the workforce as a whole
