    This paper presents a bibliometric study analyzing the productivity and citations of female researchers in the fields of social sciences and law in Spain, within the context of Spanish scientific journals. The study was based on the rankings of researchers included in the Índice de Impacto de las Revistas Españolas de Ciencias Sociales (INRECS) and Índice de Impacto de las Revistas Españolas de Ciencias Jurídicas (INRECJ). Eleven different scientific disciplines were analyzed and the final sample consisted of 3,370 researchers, of whom 30 % were women. To study gender differences four variables were selected and analyzed: number of papers, number of citations, number of international citations and citation average. The results show that women in the 11 areas studied have both a lower productivity and a lower number of citations. On the other hand, in some areas women do receive a greater number of international citations and in almost all areas achieve higher citation averages. However the presence of women in the rankings and among the Spanish research elite is still small.

    This study comprehensively analyses gender representation and citation disparities in gender studies by examining the position of female scholars as first and corresponding authors. The research uncovers a pattern of gender-homogeneous co-authorship and investigates the geographical and economic disparities in academic contributions, scrutinising the impact of a country’s economic status on citation rates and open-access publications, particularly in relation to citation rates and open-access publications. The study uses a Logistics Regression and Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial Regression model to explore factors influencing open-access publication and citation rates. The study’s findings demonstrate the predominant presence of female scholars in gender-focused literature within social sciences, in contrast to their underrepresentation in STEM fields. The findings also reveal a tendency towards gender-homogenous collaborations and a significant concentration of scholarly output from the high-income regions, highlighting both geographic and economic disparities. The present study provides an analytical foundation for future studies on the global distribution of scholarly contributions and the complex interplay of various factors affecting academic publishing in gender studies. © Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary 2024.
