@doc_doc_pru@GarbinAlexander@sunsopeningband Tenure would most likely impact contract length as it is a protected status for employment rather than typically associated with salary raises. Its highly variable thought these days across institutions and how its even defined though.
@elevatingEBP@GarbinAlexander@Bray_Brayyy@PTJournal The short term opportunity cost is definitely a consideration depending on where you are in life. I do also like to consider the other positive career opportunities of a PhD and being able to easily earn a larger salary later in your career (50+) when clinical work becomes hard.
@Bray_Brayyy@PTJournal@GarbinAlexander There are many other paths to contributing to research other than a PhD. I would emphasize that the case scenario we presented in the article is a conservative case. I myself got a NIH loan repayment grant as well as didn't do a post and was able to break even much sooner.
@doc_doc_pru@GarbinAlexander@PTJournal@Bray_Brayyy I've had a PhD student in his 60s choose to pursue PhD training just to continue his development as a clinician and contribute to advancing knowledge in our field
