The chapter explores the vertical segregation, i.e. the dissimilarity in the distributions of the sexes throughout a given hierarchical system. In academia, the FR-feminization ratios are lower for senior staff than for the staff in general and the percentage of women in the top grade never exceeds 21%. There are also high level of vertical dissimilarity among R&D personnel in many countries, but the pattern varies across sectors. The relationship between occupations seems to depend on the institutional sector and the group of countries.

The chapter explores the vertical segregation, i.e. the dissimilarity in the distributions of the sexes throughout a given hierarchical system. In academia, the FR-feminization ratios are lower for senior staff than for the staff in general and the percentage of women in the top grade never exceeds 21%. There are also high level of vertical dissimilarity among R&D personnel in many countries, but the pattern varies across sectors. The relationship between occupations seems to depend on the institutional sector and the group of countries.File in questo prodotto:
