经济学让你变得性别歧视吗?

Does Economics Make You Sexist?
Review of Economics and Statistics · 2024 · Valentina A. Paredes、M. Daniele Paserman、Francisco Pino

中文摘要

我们提供了关于经济学专业学生相对于其他领域学生对女性存在外显与内隐偏见的直接证据。我们在智利对本科生开展了一项大规模调查,涵盖刚入学的一年级学生以及二年级及以上的学生,并结合了一整套广泛的测量指标来构建性别偏见指数。经济学专业学生比其他专业学生更具偏见。有一些证据表明,经济学专业学生在入学之初、尚未接触经济学课程之前就已更具偏见。这一差距在二年级及以上的学生中更为明显,尤其是在男生中。

Abstract

We provide direct evidence on explicit and implicit biases against women among students in economics relative to other fields. We conducted a large scale survey among undergraduates in Chile, among both entering first-year students and students in years 2 and above, combining a wide battery of measures to create an index of gender bias. Economics students are more biased than students in other fields. There is some evidence that economics students are more biased already upon entry, before exposure to economics classes. The gap becomes more pronounced among students in years 2 and above, especially for male students.
