What could the non-random 6% willing to fill such detailed timelogs in response to an email have in common? 

“The sample size is small and participants were not chosen randomly (all 550 Boise State full-time faculty members were asked to participate but just 30 responded)” https://twitter.com/jayvanbavel/status/960209154148315137 …

I actually use David Seah (http://davidseah.com )'s trackers for my own sanity (most of the time), because I need to know with some sense of accuracy where my time goes besides what's in my calendar. I find they work well, but it isn't fun. :)

All good points. But: 1) fwiw my own experience suggests most PIs I know work this much. 2) much other data (e.g., a survey of >4,000 UC faculty) confirm this: http://www.nicholaswolfinger.com/blog/book/do-babies-matter/ … via
@NickWolfinger & 3) other professions (e.g medicine) require 80hr workweeks in one's 20'spic.twitter.com/0MPiNMkYcC

Medicine is a different matter, though! It’s forced (though post-2003 reforms are good!) Also we know that long work hours by doctors result in killing patients. Some professors do work a good deal, but not in the same way and we often hear a lot more from the overworked.

Also, the question is what counts as work in what profession? What things do they do other jobs wouldn’t see as „Work”?

One method to correct: ask kids of faculty. My father worked several hours multiple nights per week grading papers, but also didn’t get to work until around 9, and was home by 5. Seemed standard in humanities professors.
