Abstract Data on more than 4,000 full-time, tenure-track faculty in four-year colleges and universities were analyzed to examine the relative importance of teaching, research, administration, and service in determining basic salary. Results showed the dominance of a research-oriented faculty reward structure for each type of institution regardless of professed mission. The same research-oriented reward structure was evident in each type of discipline. Teaching activities seldom were rewarded; in some cases, time spent on teaching was negatively related to salary.
