Replication Data for: Disbanding the Old Boys’ Club

As the #MeToo movement gained momentum in 2018, a collective formed among political scientists to examine the discipline's issues with the same lens. This #MeTooPoliSci collective, together with the American Political Science Association (APSA), distributed a survey to APSA members that asked respondents to identify obstacles that hinder the success of womxn and to share effective solutions. The results are consistent with previous studies: explicit bias and structural discrimination are major obstacles to womxn's advancement, and departments must evolve in order to effect meaningful changes. Specifically, womxn are disproportionately burdened with service commitments and experience bias in student evaluations of teaching (SETs) when compared to their male colleagues, which can have negative consequences for promotion. In addition, the lack of transparency in decisionmaking and resource distribution hinder the ability of womxn to effectively perform their professional responsibilities. As such, the #MeTooPoliSci survey confirmed the lived experiences of womxn in Political Science and informed the recommendations that we present here for male political scientists to mitigate these obstacles in support of womxn in their departments.
