Abstract This article examines the research productivity and impact of women who received accounting doctorates between 1960 and 1986, and compares their performance to a sample of male peers, after controlling for Ph.D. year, the institution of doctoral training and the type of initial faculty appointment. The majority of women accounting faculty have achieved comparable levels of research quantity, quality and impact as their male counterparts. Consequently, research performance should not be a barrier to the upward mobility of academic women accountants.
