“…Researchers as well as individuals intending to use this normative data for evaluative purposes would be remiss not to consider other important demographic variables, especially marginalized identities. In addition to contributing to social and psychological stress (Aguirre, 2020), academics with marginalized identities are more likely to spend disproportionate time on “invisible” work in academia (e.g., service; Social Sciences Feminist Network Research Interest, 2017). Professors and administrators must consider the potential compounding effect of intersectional identities on productivity values when evaluating professors, especially when considering promotions beyond tenure (Croom, 2017).…”

The landscape of academia in clinical psychology has changed drastically over the last 10 years. Since 2012, the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA) accredited six additional programmes, an influx of faculty joined the field, and research productivity substantially increased. Canadian productivity norms can also reasonably be expected to have meaningfully changed given changes in academia since norms were published in 2012. The present replication study was designed to update normative data for publication counts, citations, and h-indices for CPA-accredited clinical psychology professors stratified by rank and gender. The present study results evidenced that average and annual publication counts, citation counts, and h-indices have at least doubled in the last 10 years across all professorial ranks for men and women. Results also suggest gendered differences are diminishing, as men do not appear to be outproducing women except at the full professor rank. The top 15% of men and women professors from CPA-accredited clinical psychology programmes stratified by career status are detailed to recognize the academic achievements of individuals and promote transparency; however, inclusion as a top producer does not indicate the quality of psychology professors or represent their impact on the field. We caution against using any single set of indicators to evaluate any type of professorial productivity and recommend promoting the early success of researchers to truly engender equity.

“…To be clear, while institutional violence was not new or unique to our experiences (Barceló, 2014; Cueva, 2014), what we recognized and acknowledged through our project was that the historical and ongoing institutional violence we were experiencing was steeped in anti‐Black oppression and white supremacy (Mustaffa, 2017). This violence manifested itself in subtle and not‐so‐subtle ways in the workplace: in hiring, tenure, and promotion processes (White‐Lewis, 2020); in micro/macroaggressions (Aguirre, 2020); in invisible and emotional labor (Isenbarger & Zembylas, 2006); and in the erasure of ancestral histories, knowledge, and pedagogies (Ramdeholl, 2020). These experiences held especially true for WOC faculty (Mirza, 2014).…”

The temporalities of COVID-19 and resultant economic crisis, along with increased visibility of white supremacy and anti-Blackness, have exacerbated the longstanding challenges Women of Color (WOC) faculty experience, particularly around negotiating labor and navigating the academy. Through Anzaldúa's borderlands framework, and an interwoven methodology of testimonios and pláticas, this paper's findings illuminate how the fixed, shifting, and messy boundaries of academic work have, especially for WOC faculty working through COVID-19, violated the limits of the personal and professional, intruded into the homes as sacred spaces, and continued and expanded demands to provide labor. Institutions have placated these fraught borders with professional development and networks of mentorship-all while pivoting away from addressing the material and structural conditions that disintegrate the borders, particularly for WOC faculty. By exploring the layered complexities of traversing the academy-a space not made for our existence as WOC within them-we offer a nuanced understanding of academic borderlands. As a part of this, we highlight our resistance to carve out spaces of solidarity and collectivity in the face of Eurocentric, individualistic institutions to imagine

“…The impacts are often disproportionately felt by countries and universities with fewer economic resources, exacerbating existing inequalities (Walters 2018). Other barriers experienced by potential attendees include discrimination and/or inaccessibility based on gender (Biggs et al 2018, Jackson 2019, Nicolazzo & Jourian 2020, race (Hughey 2019, Miles et al 2020, nationality (Aguirre 2020), ethnicity (Ford et al 2019, Timperley et al 2020, native language (McCarthy et al 2004), disabilities (De Picker 2020), personality (McCarthy et al 2004, Davis & Warfield 2011, risk of sexual misconduct (National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine 2018, Sharoni 2018) and external responsibilities, such as caring for children or other family members (Eckhaus andDavidovitch, 2018, Henderson &Moreau 2020).…”

Twitter conferences as a low‐carbon, far‐reaching and inclusive way of communicating research in ornithology and ecology

Academic conferences play an important role in the scientific community by providing an opportunity for researchers to discuss their work and to network. However, drawbacks of traditional face-to-face (F2F) conferences, such as the ostensible exclusion of non-scientists, the substantial environmental footprint, and the large costs in terms of both time and money are increasingly being recognized. As a result, alternative and complementary formats are being explored. One of these is the Twitter conference (TC), in which research is presented and discussed on the social media platform Twitter. Here, we use hashtag and presenter data from several ornithology and ecology conferences (both TCs and F2F events) to explore the potential reach of the tweets and the magnitude of the difference in greenhouse gas emissions between the two conference types. We found that TCs generated greater engagement than F2F events, have the potential to reach a very large audience and result in a substantial reduction in emissions. Further, we argue that the format promotes presenter and audience diversity due to participation being flexible and virtually cost-free. While we recognize some disadvantages of this format compared to F2F events, especially in relation to the social and networking aspects of conferences, we envision that virtual events, such as TCs, will play an important role in the future of science dissemination and outreach. By embracing such opportunities, academic conferences can move towards a more inclusive and sustainable future.
