BACKGROUND
Sex disparity in the Program Director role has not been studied. The goal of this study is to evaluate the percentage of women in Chair and Program Director positions. We hypothesize that there is a higher percentage of women in the Program Director role than Chair role.
METHODS
An Internet search identified Chairs, Program Directors, Associate Program Directors, and Division Chiefs. Statistical analysis compared percentages of women in these roles at all institutions, academic/community programs, and regions.
RESULTS
There is higher female representation in the Program Director position than Chair position (P = .002) in General Surgery, Otolaryngology, and Orthopedics. More women are Associate Program Directors than Division Chiefs (23.6% vs 9.8%, P ≤ .001). Academic and community programs are no different. In the West, a greater percentage of women are Chairs as compared with the other regions (P ≤ .002).
CONCLUSIONS
There are higher rates of women in Program Director position than Department Chair position. This discrepancy warrants further investigation.
背景
尚未对项目主任角色中的性别差异进行研究。本研究的目的是评估担任主席和项目主任职位的女性比例。我们假设担任项目主任角色的女性比例高于担任主席角色的女性比例。
方法
通过互联网搜索确定了主席、项目主任、副主任和科室主任。统计分析比较了所有机构、学术/社区项目以及各地区担任这些职位的女性比例。
结果
在普通外科、耳鼻喉科和骨科中，担任项目主任职位的女性比例高于担任主席职位的女性比例（P = 0.002）。担任副主任的女性多于科室主任（23.6% 对 9.8%，P≤0.001）。学术项目和社区项目没有差异。在西部，担任主席的女性比例高于其他地区（P≤0.002）。
结论
担任项目主任职位的女性比例高于系主任职位。这种差异值得进一步调查。
