Multiple Linear Regression Analysis
Multiple regression analysis of salary vs rank/step. As indicated in Table 1, the simplest model with only demographic variables shows that relative to white male faculty, women earn salaries that are around 7.5% lower, Asian faculty 6.3% and URM faculty 20.2% lower. Only 11% of salary variation is explained by this model. After all control factors are added, 94% of salary variation is explained by a model with demographic, experience, field, and rank variables. After adjusting for covariates, relative to white male faculty, salaries are around 1.6% lower for faculty who are women, 2.4% higher for Asian, and 4.5% higher for URM faculty. In the final model, URM faculty earning 4.5% more than white faculty is statistically significant. The final model predicted salaries within plus or minus 15.9%. (For technically-minded readers, the RMSE on the log base 10 scale is 0.032.)

Progress Rate Analysis
Using a simple t-test, the results indicate that there is no statistically significant difference in progression rate means by either gender or ethnicity when compared to white male faculty. Normative progression is defined in the Progression Matrix.
