One in three women leave academia as a result of parenthood, compared to one in six men. @cairosofie.bsky.social @riaivandic.bsky.social @ansolassen.bsky.social @valentinatartari.bsky.social @cep-lse.bsky.social draw on a new study to explain why on @lseimpactblog.bsky.social

The lack of women at the top of the academic ladder is driven by unequal childcare responsibilities - LSE Impact

Motherhood, and the unequal childcare responsibilities that follow, explain a large share of the observed gender gap in academic employment. Sofie Cairo, Ria Ivandic, Anne Sophie Lassen and Valentina…

This morning, our study made it to French radio 🥐 Listen - in French - to the conversation with @alexandradelbot.bsky.social about the gender gaps in academia and what children have to do with it + a bit about the benefits of admin data (I cannot help it 🫶) for answering these types of questions

C'est le constat édifiant mené sur 13 000 scientifiques danois. En retraçant leurs carrières sur plus de 20 ans, cette nouvelle étude révèle qu'un tiers des femmes devenues mères quittent la recherche. Un effet absent chez les hommes et qui pourrait expliquer le phénomène du "tuyau percé".

Grateful to be one of the recipients of the Early Career Research Award Together with Valeria Zurla and @jonasjessen.bsky.social, we study when and why parental leave policies help mothers and reduce the gender gap We start with Denmark, Germany, and Italy, and will add more countries. Exciting ✨

A new Copenhagen Business School article highlights evidence that Denmark’s 2022 paternity leave reform changed leave-taking patterns, social attitudes & gender earnings gaps. Featuring research by Camille Landais & co-authors. via.ritzau.dk/pressemeddel...

Det første store studie af den øremærkede barsel viser, at reformen ikke kun øger fædres orlov og mindsker løngabet, den ændrer også vores syn på køn, ansvar og ligestilling

Only one in four professors is a woman. We show that motherhood is a key driver of the leaky pipeline, particularly at early career stages. More details in the summary and working paper below👇 Sign up to hear my presentation of the research in the CEPR Applied Economics Seminar on 23 March.

👶📚 Does #parenthood affect academic careers equally? A new study shows that after the first child, many mothers leave #academia and are less likely to reach tenure (a permanent professorship) – while fathers’ careers remain largely unchanged. berlinschoolofeconomics.de/about-us/new...

Using data from the US & 10 European countries, the OECD LinkEED 2.0 Team analysed the role of firms in the gender wage gap. They find firms account for 10-30% of the gap, mainly reflecting women being more likely to work at firms that pay less to all employees. cepr.org/voxeu/column... #EconSky

The figure shows the gender wage gap (the difference in average log hourly wages between males and females) in log points on the y-axis. The x-axis displays the gender wage premium gap, which is the sum of the sorting and pay-setting components. The diagonal lines represent scenarios in which firm wage premiums account for 10% (top line) and 40% (bottom line) of the total gender wage gap. Early explanations for gender wage gaps focused on human capital or career choices. This column uses data from the US and ten European countries to examine the role of firms. Across all countries considered, firms account for between 10% and 30% of the gender wage gap, mainly reflecting women being more likely to work at firms that pay less to all employees, irrespective of their skills. While men move to higher-paying firms as they advance in their career, women tend to stay behind. Women also tend to sort into low-wage firms in return for more flexibility in working time. The findings suggests that there is a case for complementing family policies with policies focused on firms.

📚 People are more accepting of men falling behind in work and education—and less supportive of policies to help them. The reason? Many believe it’s due to lack of effort. 🔗 academic.oup.com/jeea/advance... @nhhnor.bsky.social @nhhecon.bsky.social

🚨🚨 Does labor market discrimination drive economic gaps? Can market competition eliminate discrimination like economic theory suggests? What *kind* of discrimination are we talking about. In a new paper, Alex Willen & I explore the question. #Econsky
