Public Administration ReviewSummary: This study deals with the effects of veterans' preference on women's careers in the federal civil service between 1975 and 1995. This analysis applies time series regression and logistic regression to employment, promotion, age, and salary data for males and females, both veterans and nonveterans. Contrary to claims that veterans, a predominantly male group, are privileged throughout their careers, these data reveal diminishing effects of the preference and disadvantages to veterans. Thus, one can expect litle change in federal women's status if veterans' preference is eliminated. - Reproduced
