Zusammenfassung: | The academic career in the Spanish Public University is prolonged in time. On average, an academic in Accounting achieves the chair in 15 years since obtaining the doctorate.
Empirical evidence shows differences between the academic careers of men and women. Women continue to be underrepresented in the highest-ranking category and it seems that there is what has been interpreted in the academy as "leaking pipeline", that is to say, throughout the academic career, women suffer greater wear and tear than men.
The aim of the paper is to analyze whether in the Accounting area of the Spanish Public university there are different speeds in academic careers between men and women and, if so, to analyze at what milestone in the career begins the flight of female talent and what factors family, institutional or research production explain it. We have collected the data of 353 professors of the Accounting area of the Spanish public universities through a survey, which covers a time horizon from 1959 to 2019. We use probability models to explore the promotion time and its possible explanatory variables.
The results show that the trajectory of academic men and women is similar until reaching tenure but, nevertheless, the probability of women to achieve the chair decreases strongly with respect to that of men. Also, the maternity is the most relevant factor that can explain this fact.
En las Universidades Públicas Españolas la carrera académica es prolongada en el tiempo pues, por término medio, un académico en Contabilidad logra la cátedra en 15 años desde que obtiene el doctorado.
La evidencia empírica muestra diferencias entre las carreras académicas de hombres y mujeres. Las mujeres continúan estando infrarrepresentadas en la categoría de mayor rango y parece que existe lo que se ha interpretado en la academia como “tubería con fugas”, es decir, a lo largo de la carrera académica las mujeres sufren mayor desgaste que los hombres.
Nuestro trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar si en el área de Contabilidad de la universidad pública española existen diferentes velocidades en las carreras académicas entre hombres y mujeres y, de ser así, analizar en qué hito de la carrera comienza la fuga del talento femenino y qué factores familiares, institucionales o de producción investigadora lo explican. Para ello, hemos recabado mediante una encuesta los datos de 353 profesores y profesoras del área de Contabilidad de las universidades públicas españolas que abarca un horizonte te |
