Inhalt: Die Unternehmensberatungen in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland zeichnen sich durch boomende Umsätze, zunehmende Internationalisierung, wachsenden Konkurrenzdruck und durch eine niedrige, aber steigende Frauenquote unter den Beschäftigten aus. Der vorliegende Beitrag geht der Frage nach, ob die Professionspolitiken der Verbände den Interessen von Frauen an guten Positionen und Karrieren in diesem Tätigkeitsfeld förderlich sind. Die Leithypothese geht davon aus, dass sich die Verbände auf Grund ihrer Handlungslogiken nicht am Ziel gleicher beruflicher Chancen für Frauen orientieren. Zunächst werden Konzepte zur Rolle von Verbänden im Professionalisierungsprozess diskutiert. Die Beschreibung der Struktur und die Entwicklung des Sektors Unternehmensberatung und seiner Verbände in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland bildet den Hintergrund für die Analyse von Verbandspositionen zur "Frauenfrage".

Inhalt: "What are some of the barriers to women's achievement in postsecondary settings, particularly
in math and science? How can educators support the development of females to ensure
that they reach their potential? Nonintellectual factors may improve the prediction
of academic success beyond intellectual dispositions, and yet the typical coed university
is still a chilly climate for women. What other issues are occurring in the social
context for female students? This article explores the "cycle" of women's experience
of learning, focusing on students in an introductory math course and on preservice
teachers. Implications for graduate women students are also considered." (author's

Inhalt: "Engineering has been one of the most difficult fields for 'women to enter and in
which to succeed. Although the percentage of female engineers has Increased, women
are still seriously underrepresented in the workforce. This study examined the effect
offender on career commitment, success, satisfaction, and involvement in engineering,
and the effect of personality and work environment on these variables. Alumni from
an engineering school in the northeastern United States were surveyed. The questionnaire
was analyzed using statistical and descriptive methods to determine relationships
among these variables. Women's commitment scores were lower than men's when controlled
for other variables, including satisfaction and involvement. Men had longer tenure
as engineers than women, even when controlled for year of graduation, professional
engineering status, and number of children. Women did not leave engineering in different
proportions than men, but they did earn significantly less despite controlling for
year of graduation and number of hours worked weekly. Some gender differences in workplace
experience were also found, including having colleagues act protectively, being mistaken
for secretaries, and seeing men progress faster in their careers than equally qualified
women." (author's abstract)|

Inhalt: "There is a tremendous shortage of information technology (IT) talent in the United States today. Reports suggest that the demand for such talent will continue to increase. Despite the need for qualified personnel, women are underrepresented in this field. Those entering the profession often leave. This article discusses possible sociological factors influencing the number of women entering a career in information technology and their advancements to management positions. The relationship of these variables with perceptions of organizational justice in career advancement is considered. Members of Systers, an on-line forum for women in technology, were surveyed and the results are presented." (author's abstract)
