For over forty years, social scientists have noted and puzzled over
the 'gender gap' in publication rates of academic scientists. In
this study, the author, Robert L. Fisher, argues that men and women
scientists differ in their 'problem choice process' and that this
difference may be behind much of the difference in publication
rates. Fisher draws on a large literature review, including much
unpublished European research, and a detailed survey of 107
scientists from numerous disciplines that he carried out in the
late 1990s in both the United States and Canada, to support his
thesis.
