THE FEMALE PARTICIPATION IN THE ACADEMIC PRODUCTION ON CAPITAL STRUCTURE IN BRAZILIAN JOURNALS

Resumen

Capital structure is one of the central themes of Corporate Finance. The development of theories and the range of empirical research on the behaviors and determinants of the capital structure are striking. Despite this interest in the subject, few studies have focused on the characteristics of this academic production, especially work on female participation. Thus, this study aims to analyze the female participation in academic production on capital structure in Brazilian periodicals. The collection of the articles of the sample was done through Portal Periodicos/Capes, SciELO and SPELL databases. The non-probabilistic sample, obtained from the search in the databases, comprised 195 articles, written by 412 authors from 97 different institutions, published by 66 journals. Through the bibliometric analysis, it was observed that the female participation is smaller than the male participation. The main findings identified that only 29% of the authorship of the articles belonged to women; that historically female participation is lower than male participation; that authors prefer to produce their articles in partnership and the more authors there are in an article, the greater the presence of women in that article; the highest titers had a smaller contingent of women; of the most productive authors, only three are women; female participation was higher than male participation in only two of the 11 most representative institutions.
