Dataset for "How Harassment is Depriving Universities of Talent: A national survey of STEM academics in the UK"
We recruited 835 faculty members from 40 universities in the United Kingdom (UK) via our networks within UK STEM departments. Participants were drawn from various STEM departments, including biological science (18%), computer science (7%), engineering (28%) mathematical science (16%), and physics (13%). Respondents completed an online survey in which details about their employment were collected at the beginning and additional demographic information was collected at the end. The middle section of the survey contained measures of: identity and career perceptions; staying in academia; collaborative working style, received opportunities; workplace diversity and inclusion and affective workplace climate; experience of harassment; and assessment of a workshop intervention.
