摘要

影响IT领域性别平等的社会、组织和个人因素如何以及为什么会随着时间而变化?为了回答这个问题,对影响妇女在信息技术专业中地位的因素变化的性质进行了纵向调查。调查是在爱尔兰社会经济地位波动的背景下进行的。使用性别和IT的个体差异理论分析了在四个时间点对63名女性的生活史访谈,这些女性的故事涵盖了从20世纪70年代到21世纪10年代的几十年。结果是通过增加七个主题来动态扩展这一理论,这些主题描述了影响女性IT专业人员的因素变化的本质。爱尔兰经济变化对妇女的影响表现为其他因素的变化:环境(即政策、基础设施和文化)、身份(如母性)和个人(如家庭)。调查结果显示,在爱尔兰经济起起落落的背景下,女性在这一领域的发展状况发生了渐进和戏剧性的变化。从这幅对爱尔兰50多年的观察中,我们可以看到变革和持久的形象。

Investigating the Nature of Change in Factors Affecting Gender Equity in the IT Sector: A Longitudinal Study of Women in Ireland
How and why do societal, organizational and individual factors affecting gender equity in the IT field change over time? To answer this question a longitudinal investigation of the nature of change in factors affecting the position of women in the IT profession was undertaken. It was conducted in Ireland against the backdrop of fluctuations in the nation’s socio-economic status. The individual differences theory of gender and IT was used to analyze life history interviews conducted at four points in time with a total of 63 women whose stories cover the decades from the 1970s to the 2010s. What resulted is a dynamic extension of this theory through the addition of seven themes that characterize the nature of change in factors affecting women IT professionals. The effect on women of economic changes in Ireland is shown to occur through changes in other factors: environmental (i.e., policy, infrastructural, and cultural), identity (e.g., motherhood) and individual (e.g., family). The results reveal both gradual and dramatic changes in an evolving picture of women in this sector, against the back drop of the peaks and valleys of Ireland’s economy. Both transformational and enduring images emerge from this look at Ireland over five decades.
