We study whether gender influences credit attribution for group work using observational data and two experiments. We use data from academic economists to test whether coauthorship matters differently for tenure for men and women. We find that, conditional on quality and other observables, men are tenured similarly regardless of whether they coauthor or solo author. Women, however, are less likely to receive tenure the more they coauthor. We then conduct two experiments that demonstrate that biases in credit attribution in settings without confounds exist. Taken together, our results are best explained by gender and stereotypes influencing credit attribution for group work.

小组工作认可的性别差异

我们使用观察数据和两个实验研究性别是否影响小组工作的信用归因。我们使用来自学术经济学家的数据来测试合着是否对男性和女性的任期有不同的影响。我们发现，以质量和其他可观察的条件为条件，男性无论是合著者还是独著者，其终身制都是相似的。然而，女性越是合着，就越不可能获得终身职位。然后我们进行了两个实验，证明在没有混淆的环境中存在信用归因偏差。综上所述，我们的结果最好通过性别和影响小组工作信用归因的刻板印象来解释。
