Although increasing attention has been given to scholarly productivity among social work faculty, exclusive attention given to the scholarly productivity of social work doctorates has been scant. An even more neglected group has been social work doctorates of color. This study examines both descriptive and analytic data concerning the scholarly productivity of African-American social work doctorates. Data were collected from a national survey of African-American social work faculty. Major findings of the survey reveal that African-American social work doctorates publish just as much as do other social work doctorates and that the age at which they receive the doctorate is very significant in determining their publication rates.
