Women are less likely to be authors than men in their research group at the same career stage, even accounting for the hours each individual worked on the project, according to a new study.
Science is increasingly conducted by teams. But within those teams, credit isn’t always allocated equitably:
Studies across many science, technology, engineering, and math fields have documented that women author fewer papers than expected based on the percentage of women in the field. But it has been challenging to figure out why that’s the case—in part because it’s hard to identify who was potentially left off author lists. The new study overcame this hurdle by drawing on a uniquely detailed data set of nearly 10,000 U.S.
“This paper is fantastic because it addresses something we’ve been wondering about–what is happening behind the scenes, what is the reason behind this authorship gender gap?” adds Tamara Pico, an assistant professor in earth sciences at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who.
Glennon acknowledges that the study couldn’t control for every factor that goes into determining who deserves authorship. It’s possible, for instance, that some of the men working on the research teams worked more hours than were officially reported to their institution or had more intellectual contributions to the group’s work.
