Abstract
Studies of academic career trajectories have generally focused on either the rank of jobs or the prestige of the institutions in which they are held. This article uses both dimensions to measure goodness of jobs. It first looks at the association between these two measures. Finding that they are weakly negatively associated, it then examines the determinants of these two dimensions of a good academic job immediately after graduate school and at least six years later. Data are from a sample of psychologists who began their postdoctorate careers in academia.
