Sharing Knowledge Openly: Author Gender, Race/Ethnicity, and Feminist Science
Open science is an increasingly important movement in contemporary social science. Many funders have begun to mandate open practices, newer journals like Socius are open access, and preprint servers have increased readership of paywalled articles. Feminist scholars have written about the values and pitfalls of open research. In this paper, we put those ideas in conversation with each other and empirical data on open-access publishing to develop a…
Who Authors Social Science? Demographics and the Production of Knowledge
Author demographics are of key epistemic importance in science—shaping the approaches to and contents of research—especially in social scientific knowledge production, yet we know very little about who produces social scientific publications. We fielded an original demographic survey of nearly 20,000 sociology, economics, and communication authors in the Web of Science from 2016–2020. Our results include not only details about gender and race/eth…
A Kaleidoscope of Identities: Reflexivity, Routine, and the Fluidity of Sex, Gender, and Sexuality
Name-based demographic inference and the unequal distribution of misrecognition
Because the machine can discriminate: How machine learning serves and transforms biological explanations of human difference
Research on scientific/intellectual movements, and social movements generally, tends to focus on resources and conditions outside the substance of the movements, such as funding and publication opportunities or the prestige and networks of movement actors. Drawing on Pinch's theory of technologies as institutions, I argue that research methods can also serve as resources for scientific movements by institutionalizing their ideas in research pract…
A Gender Hypothesis of sex disparities in adverse drug events
The Gay Right: A Framework for Understanding Right Wing LGBT Organizations
While there has been considerable interest in debates about right wing ideas in LGBT movements-military service, marriage, nationalism, white supremacy-there has been comparatively little attention to self-proclaimed right wing LGBT organizations, what I call the "gay right." Social theory to date offers a fragmented set of theoretical tools to explain them, including homonationalism, post-gay identity, additive intersectionality, and systems jus…
Paradigms of Sex Research and Women in Stem
Scientists' identities and social locations influence their work, but the content of scientific work can also influence scientists. Theory from feminist science studies, autoethnographic accounts, interviews, and experiments indicate that the substance of scientific research can have profound effects on how scientists are treated by colleagues and their sense of belonging in science. I bring together these disparate literatures under the framewor…
Diagnosing Gender Bias in Image Recognition Systems
Image recognition systems offer the promise to learn from images at scale without requiring expert knowledge. However, past research suggests that machine learning systems often produce biased output. In this article, we evaluate potential gender biases of commercial image recognition platforms using photographs of U.S. members of Congress and a large number of Twitter images posted by these politicians. Our crowdsourced validation shows that com…
