我们利用对化学、计算机科学、电气工程、微生物学和物理学系 3800 名博士生的全国调查数据以及博士生调查/国家科学基金会的数据，分析了年轻科学家的职业偏好和前景。我们按学生的领域和性别分析模式，并评估博士生的偏好和主观（报告的）前景在多大程度上反映了近期博士生的客观（触觉）就业经历。研究结果表明了主观和客观职业前景之间关系的复杂性。以及个人倾向和有条件的“期望”如何基于性别和科学领域被认为是可行的。
With data from a national survey of 3800 doctoral students in departments of chemistry, computer science, electrical engineering, microbiology and physics, and data from the Survey of Doctoral Recipients/National Science Foundation, we analyze the career-preferences and prospects of young scientists. We analyze patterns by field and gender of students, and assess the extent to which the preferences and subjective (reported) prospects of doctoral students reflect the objective tactual) employment experiences of recent PhD recipients. The findings point toward the intricacy of the relationship between subjective and objective career prospects; and to the ways in which individual inclinations and conditioned 'expectations' rest upon what is regarded as feasible, by gender and by field in science.
