Perfil das orientações e produções das mulheres fundamentado em dados da Plataforma Lattes

Abstract

The theme of women in science has been the focus of several studies that seek to understand the role of women and their varied relations with science, bringing approaches that analyze scientific and technological participation and seek to understand their academic trajectory in science. In this context, this paper aimed to analyze the participation of women using as a database the set of PhDs who have curricula registered in the Lattes Platform and whose gender registered in their curriculum is female. After completing the stage of data collection, a set of 125,515 registered curricula with female gender and maximum completed doctorate degree was obtained, distributed in the various areas of scientific knowledge. The data of the female PhDs were grouped as to orientations and bibliographic and technical productions, in which it was possible to analyze the evolution of the scientific and technological production of the set in a temporal way. Studying the various aspects of women in general and particularly in science, in addition to being relevant, presents a characterization of their research, which can contribute to the generation of national scientific indicators and the management of information in the scientific and technological area, as well as supporting the formulation of policies and strategies that enhance the performance of women in academic environments.
