Summary: | The immigration of more than 13,000 physicians, over half of whom were women, from the former Soviet Union to Israel during the first half of the 1990's, provided an opportunity to investigate gender differences in the occupational integration of a large group of professionals. The present paper presents findings from a three-stage cohort study of 333 former Soviet physicians covering their first five years in Israel, and from in-depth interviews with twenty-three immigrant physicians. |
