Abstract
Stem Workforce Gender biases persist in academia, but no tool that quantifies the extent of these biases currently exists. Tran et al. developed and validated the Perceived Subtle Gender Bias Index (PSGBI), designed to quantify women's perceptions of subtle biases within academia. The PSGBI contains four subscales: perceived gender inequity, collegiality, mentorship, and institutional support. The PSGBI was able to differentiate the higher perceptions of subtle gender biases by academic rank, tenured women, and women in men-dominated contexts, that is, associate and full professors perceived more inequality and biases relative to assistant professors. Moving forward, the PSGBI can provide women academics and their allies with data for further discussing gender bias as well as a set of events and experiences to understand where and when biases may be experienced.
