TY - RPRT A1 - Nieberg, Valeria A1 - Krapf, Sandra A1 - Kreyenfeld, Michaela A1 - Wolf, Katharina T1 - Construction of a publication database of the scientific journal "Demography": how to identify author’s gender and field of publication N2 - This Technical Report describes a database that has been established for the research project “Gendered authorship and demographic research – An analysis of 50 years of Demography”. In this project, we have investigated whether gender determines field of publication. Our analysis was based on all papers published in “Demography” which is the flagship journal of the Population of America Association (PAA) and currently celebrates its 50th anniversary. We scrutinized all issues of „Demography” and compiled information on title, topic as well as gender of all authors. This Technical Report describes how we set up the resulting database. The Report is accompanied by the respective database (in STATA-format, version 13.0).

Our aim here is to investigate the development of research subfields and female authorship in Demography over the last 50 years. We find that female authorship in Demography has risen considerably since the 1980s and that currently a woman is about as likely as a man to be the sole or the first author of a paper published in the journal. However, we find some differences by subfield. Women seem to be overrepresented in the “family and household” research subfield but underrepresented in the “mortality and health” and “data and methods” categories.
