Description | Examines the dearth of women in math-intensive careers. The authors analyse common explanations to it and contrast them with their own, multidisciplinary research data. Biological and cognitive differences, discrimination, personal preferences, cultural beliefs and social practices, and structural aspects of academia are considered. Research in endocrinology, economics, sociology, education, genetics, and psychology is utilised. Includes policy recommendations. |
