Extensive research has explained women's pandemic-related workforce exodus as driven by the presumed pressures of gender disparate private, domestic burdens. The impact of gender asymmetries in academic labor on faculty well-being is less understood. We examined the effects of job-related factors on faculty mental health, a critical measure of precarity during the initial Spring 2020 “lockdown” and transition to remote work. Faculty (n = 345) were recruited via social media to participate in a survey on their work/life pandemic experiences. Women were over-represented in our sample, yet respondents at both the highest and the most tenuous ranks were underrepresented. Gender, teaching load, having dependents, and greater financial concerns were associated with higher depression and anxiety. Critically, women's heightened mental health risk was not explained by the other predictors. Results indicate women faculty's well-being and career advancement are threatened by disparate, obscured service burdens both within the academy and at home during the pandemic.

两次“家庭主妇”：论学术不稳定、“歇斯底里”的女性、教职员工的心理健康和服务作为大流行时期“大学家庭”的性别关怀工作

广泛的研究已经解释了女性与流行病相关的劳动力外流是由性别不同的私人家庭负担的假定压力驱动的。学术工作中的性别不对称对教师福利的影响鲜为人知。我们研究了与工作相关的因素对教师心理健康的影响，这是 2020 年春季最初“锁定”和向远程工作过渡期间不稳定的关键衡量指标。教员 ( n  = 345) 是通过社交媒体招募的，以参与有关他们工作/生活大流行经历的调查。女性在我们的样本中所占比例过高，但最高和最脆弱的受访者人数不足。性别、教学负担、受抚养人和更大的经济问题与更高的抑郁和焦虑有关。至关重要的是，其他预测因素无法解释女性心理健康风险的升高。结果表明，在大流行期间，女教师的福祉和职业发展受到学院内和家中不同、模糊的服务负担的威胁。
