  33. In Summary….. • Preliminary 2007 findings appear to be fairly consistent with 2002 findings • Some characteristics are associated with earnings, most strikingly gender and setting • Difficult to assess the relationship between race/ethnicity and earnings due to the small number of minority members • In general, members seem to be very satisfied with their jobs Center for Health Workforce Studies School of Public Health – University at Albany, SUNY June 2007

  34. Closing Thoughts…. • There are few opportunities for monitoring the health services research and policy workforce • Surveys such as these can help to improve our understanding of this very diverse field • AcademyHealth member support for these efforts is critical to their success Center for Health Workforce Studies School of Public Health – University at Albany, SUNY June 2007
