Gender and satisfaction with the cooperative education experience in engineering
Quelle: Journal of women and minorities in science and engineering, Vol. 9 (2003) No. 3-4
Inhalt: 
"This study investigated gender differences in job satisfaction following the first
term of a cooperative education program in engineering. Using data from a survey of
freshmen, this study tested hypotheses about gender differences in the co-op job experience
and the correlates of co-op job satisfaction. Gender-based predictive models of job
satisfaction are presented. In general, the correlates of co-op job satisfaction are
the same as those identified in past studies of job satisfaction. The level of co-op
job satisfaction is the same for men and women, even though women do face some disadvantages.
Social influences are important to both men and women, but there are gender differences
in the specific predictors." (author's abstract)|

Women and the crossroads of science : thoughts on policy, research, and evaluation
Quelle: Journal of women and minorities in science and engineering, Vol. 8 (2002) No. 3-4, S. 395-408
Inhalt: "In this essay, the authors examine the crosscutting themes of this special issue as they pertain to policy, research, and evaluation of women and science. Past and current research, theory, frameworks, and programs are discussed in the context of challenges and innovations for methods and policy. The authors assert that the crossroads for gender equity studies lies at the intersection of science and society and argue for the need to build a base of cumulative knowledge for policy and practice."

Feminist science in the case of a reform-minded biology department
Quelle: Journal of women and minorities in science and engineering, Vol. 7 (2001) No. 3, S. 173-198
Inhalt: "This study explores how science and scientists were produced and reproduced within
the setting of a university biology department. Building on recent work in the anthropology
of education and feminist science studies, the author explored the reflexive questions
of whether increased women's representation in science changed science practice and
whether changing science practice increased women's representation insolence. The
author examined both the contextual and constitutive values of science as they were
negotiated and played out in the training of scientists in this setting. The author
found some ways in which these values were shifting as more women assumed places of
leadership in the department. At the same time, the author identified other ways in
which the presence of women did not seem to cause the types of changes that feminist
science studies have hypothesized. These findings can be interpreted through the anthropological
perspective of practice theory, in which individuals are seen as exerting agency both
within and against institutional structures." (author's abstract)|
