International transdisciplinary/indisciplinary congress
https://e-wins.eu/congress/

The aim of this conference is to update and renew our understanding of women's football and other ball sports.

The aim is to analyse the issues at stake in terms of good practice and to observe the new representations that they give rise to. Beyond the obstacles and constraints that weigh on women footballers, or even ball sportswomen, the actions and experiences that allow them to develop will be defined and commented on.

Both multidisciplinary and indisciplinary, this conference brings together researchers from various backgrounds as well as experts and professionals working in the field of women's sports, including football. The aim is to change the focus and emphasise what works and what can be implemented in the long term.

Melanie Wasserman (UCLA Anderson School of Management) will present "The Summer Drop in Female Employment" (joint with Brendan Price).

Abstract :
We provide the first systematic account of summer declines in women's labor market activity. From May to July, the employment-to-population ratio among prime-age US women declines by 1.1 percentage points, whereas male employment rises ; women's total hours worked fall by 11 percent, twice the decline among men. School closures for summer break—and corresponding lapses in implicit childcare—provide a unifying explanation for these patterns. The summer drop in female employment aligns with cross-state differences in the timing of school closures, is concentrated among mothers with young school-age children, and coincides with increased time spent engaging in childcare. Decomposing the gender gap in summer work interruptions across job types defined by sector and occupation, we find large contributions from both gender differences in job allocation and gender differences within jobs in the propensity to exit employment over the summer. Summer childcare constraints may contribute to gender gaps in career choice and earnings : women—particularly those with young school-age children—disproportionately work in the education sector, which offers greater summer flexibility but lower compensation relative to comparable jobs outside of education.

Erin HENGEL - London School of Economics, Department of Social Policy

Idefferrard — 2022-09-10T08:00:00Z

Erin Hengel (London School of Economics, Department of Social Policy) will present “Gender and the time cost of peer review”.

Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate one factor that can directly contribute to—as well as indirectly shed light on the other causes of—the gender gap in academic publications : time spent in peer review. Using administrative data from an economics field journal, we find that in each round of review, referees spend 4.4 more days reviewing female-authored papers and female authors spend 12.3 more days revising their manuscripts. However, both gender gaps decline—and eventually disappear—as the same referee reviews more papers. This pattern suggests novice referees initially statistically discriminate against female authors, but are less likely to do so as their information about and confidence in the peer review process improves. More generally, our results suggest that women may be particularly disadvantaged when evaluators are less familiar with the objectives and parameters of an assessment framework.
