Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the determinants of salary structure at American universities. Data from a national survey offaculty members are used in a regression equation to estimate the effects of publications, personal characteristics, geographical region, and field of specialization. The results suggest that those who publish are more highly rewarded than their unpublished peers, faculty engaged in teaching receive lower salaries than either researchers or administrators, aging has a negative effect beyond age 50, and salaries vary substantially byfield.
