Using quantitative and qualitative data from a large national sample of lawyers, we examine self-reports of perceived discrimination in the legal workplace. Across three waves of surveys, we find that persons of color, white women, and LGBTQ attorneys are far more likely to perceive they have been a target of discrimination than white men. These differences hold in multivariate models that control for social background, status in the profession and the work organization, and characteristics of the work organization. Qualitative comments describing these experiences reveal that lawyers of different races, genders, and sexual orientations are exposed to distinctive types of bias, that supervisors and clients are the most frequent sources of discriminatory treatment, and the often-overt character of perceived discrimination. These self-reports suggest that bias in the legal workplace is widespread and rooted in the same hierarchies of race, gender, and sexual orientation that pervade society.

感知歧视:法律工作场所的种族、性别和性取向

我们使用来自全国大量律师样本的定量和定性数据,检查法律工作场所感知歧视的自我报告。在三轮调查中,我们发现有色人种、白人女性和 LGBTQ 律师比白人男性更有可能认为自己是歧视的目标。这些差异存在于控制社会背景、职业和工作组织中的地位以及工作组织特征的多变量模型中。描述这些经历的定性评论表明,不同种族、性别和性取向的律师暴露于不同类型的偏见,主管和客户是歧视待遇的最常见来源,以及感知歧视的公开特征。
