摘要

Drawing on the debate about sustainable academic careers in European countries, this article investigates patterns of time-use on academic activities for female and male researchers in Germany and Norway. More specifically, we investigate different gendered conditions for academic work related to patterns across career stages, disciplines and citizenship. We use data from the German Scientists Survey 2019 and the time-use survey of academic staff in Norway 2021 conducting descriptive and bivariate analyses. Gendered patterns in academic time-use appear to differ according to career stage, country context and disciplines in both countries. For citizenship, gendered patterns are moderate, but gendered patterns across career stage and discipline are reproduced. By simultaneously investigating female and male researchers across career stage, discipline and country, we can show more nuanced patterns of academic time-use. Thus, findings provide implications for further research combining various indicators for female and male researchers to inform policies in both countries.
