"Male Scientists' Competing Devotions to Work and Family: Changing Norms in a Male-Dominated Profession." <i>Work and Occupations,</i> 41, no. 4 (2014) Sage: 477-507. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0730888414539171.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/79033Using in-depth interviews with 74 men across different ranks in biology and physics at prestigious U.S. universities, the authors ask to what extent changing norms of fatherhood and a flexible workplace affect men working in a highly male-dominated profession and what variation exists in family forms. The authors conceptualize four typologies of men: those forgoing children, egalitarian partners, neotraditional dual earners, and traditional breadwinners. Findings suggest male scientists hold strong work devotions, yet a growing number seek egalitarian relationships, which they frame as reducing their devotion to work. The majority of men find the all-consuming nature of academic science conflicts with changing fatherhood norms.engThis is an author's peer-reviewed final manuscript, as accepted by the publisher.Journal articlegendersciencefamilyworkhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0730888414539171
