摘要

交通地理学历来是人文地理学中男性占主导地位的分支领域之一。本文探讨了《交通地理杂志》（JTRG）的研究主题是如何随着女性主导作者代表性的适度增加而演变的。我们应用文本分析技术，包括词频分析、BERTopic建模和逻辑回归，来识别自1993年创刊以来发表在该期刊上的女性主导和非女性主导的研究文章之间的主题差异。我们的研究结果表明，女性主导的研究更有可能涉及流动性、社会正义、性别差异和青年旅行，这与该分支学科历史上量化和优化驱动的根源有所不同。该研究强调了性别多样性对塑造交通地理学知识格局的影响，并呼吁继续努力促进该领域的包容性，以此作为扩大其知识范围的手段。

Women in transport geography: Gender differences in research topics

Transport Geography has historically been one of the most male-dominated subfields in Human Geography. This article explores how research themes within the Journal of Transport Geography (JTRG) have evolved alongside the moderate increase in representation of female-led authors. We apply text analysis techniques, including word frequency analysis, BERTopic modeling, and logistic regression, to identify thematic differences between female-led and non-female-led research articles published in the journal since its inception in 1993. Our findings suggest that female-led research is more likely to engage with mobility, social justice, gender disparities, and youth travel, diverging from the subdiscipline's historically quantitative and optimization-driven roots. The study highlights the impact of gender diversity in shaping the intellectual landscape of Transport Geography and calls for continued efforts to promote inclusivity within the field as a means for expanding its intellectual bounds.

期刊介绍： A major resurgence has occurred in transport geography in the wake of political and policy changes, huge transport infrastructure projects and responses to urban traffic congestion. The Journal of Transport Geography provides a central focus for developments in this rapidly expanding sub-discipline.
