Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Females have held, and currently do hold, a number of leadership positions in social work, serving as deans of graduate schools, chairs of undergraduate social work programs, directors of agencies, and presidents of national, state, and local social work organizations. There have also been a vast number of female authors of social work texts and professional journal articles. However, overall, males predominate in leadership positions in social work. Because more than two-thirds of social workers are female, there is the perception that social work is a female-dominated profession. Some different statistics suggest otherwise. Gibelman and Schervish analyzed the demographics of the membership of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) and found that male social workers disproportionately hold managerial positions, assume such positions earlier in their careers, and earn more money in these positions than do their female counterparts. Female social workers earn about 80 cents for every dollar earned by male social workers. In 2011 the NASW found that the median income for female social workers was 7,000 less than for male social workers.
