创新想法与性别(不)平等

Innovative Ideas and Gender (In)Equality
American Economic Review · 2025 · Marlène Koffi

中文摘要

本文利用经济学、数学和社会学领域的文献计量数据,分析女性的创新想法相较于男性的创新想法获得认可的情况。我通过确定论文之间的相似性,构建相应的反事实引用量。平均而言,作者均为女性的论文获得的引用次数比作者均为男性的论文少10%;考虑团队规模后,这一差距缩小40%,而在考虑作者的论文发表记录后,这一差距在大多数领域中消失。此外,还存在强烈的群体内偏好:全男性团队漏引的有女性作者参与的论文更多,反之亦然。在考虑论文发表记录后,女性学者获得的引用次数比男性学者少0%(经济学)至11%(数学),其中职业生涯早期的女性学者承受着9%—14%的引用惩罚。

Abstract

This paper analyzes recognition of women's innovative ideas compared to men's using bibliometric data in economics, mathematics, and sociology. I establish similarities between papers to construct relevant counterfactual citations. On average, all-female papers receive 10 percent fewer citations than all-male papers, a disparity reduced by 40 percent when considering team sizes and disappearing in most fields with authors' publication records. Additionally, strong in-group preferences emerge: All-male teams omit more papers with women, and vice versa. Accounting for publication histories, female scholars are cited 0 percent (economics) to 11 percent (mathematics) less, with early-career women enduring a 9–14 percent citation penalty.
