In this working paper, Anne Boring and Gloria Moroni present a survey conducted in France on a representative sample of 1,000 individuals to study the impact of the first lockdown on beliefs regarding gender norms. They found evidence that the lockdown is associated with a shift towards more traditional beliefs in gender norms.

In this Working Paper, Anne Boring and Jennifer Brown analyze data from a top-ranked French university that offers an undergraduate degree in the social sciences. The researchers focus their analysis on students’ choices for a mandatory third-year study-abroad program in which students spend an academic year at one of nearly 400 foreign universities. The authors find that despite having better grades on average, female students request lower-ranked universities than their male counterparts. The difference is especially pronounced among high-achieving students.

In an article published in The Conversation, Louis-Alexandre Erb mentions researches conducted with the Head of the Chair on the role played by Master's degree specializations in the gender pay gap. Indeed, "the master's specialty alone explains [...] two thirds of the differences between the sexes in access to full-time employment". 

In June 2021, Anne Boring and Jennifer Brown publish a new Working Paper : "Gender and Choices in Higher Education".

Abstract 

Data on the labor market outcomes of university graduates show that gender pay gaps appear soon after graduation in nearly every field of study.
