摘要 使用比较性别框架和跨国数据来研究波兰和跨国女性接受 STEM 教育的情况。还考虑了向 STEM 职业的过渡。波兰中学 STEM 教育成绩指标的调查结果显示性别不平衡，但波兰的表现比一些国家要好。就 STEM 职业而言，波兰是女性比例最低的国家之一。国家层面的社会经济、文化和政治因素，包括国民生产总值、议会中的妇女人数、性别不平等、总体平等和宗教，都被视为与波兰和其他地方的这些趋势相关的可能因素。详细的波兰数据用于提供有关波兰女孩和妇女接受 STEM 教育以及最终职业的更多见解。波兰的数据显示了需要改进的领域，但也显示了成功的领域。这项研究是在波兰独特的历史、文化、政治和社会经济安排的背景下进行的。
ABSTRACT A comparative gender framework and cross-national data are used to examine women’s access to STEM education in Poland and cross-nationally. The transition to STEM occupations is also considered. Findings on indicators of girl’s achievement in STEM education at the secondary level in Poland show gender imbalance, but Poland is doing better than some countries. With regard to STEM occupations, Poland is among the countries with the lowest representation of women. Country level socio-economic, cultural and political factors including GNP, number of women in Parliament, gender inequality, overall equality, and religion are examined as possible factors associated with these trends in Poland and elsewhere. Detailed Polish data are used to provide additional insights into girls’ and women’s access to STEM education and ultimately occupations in Poland. The Polish data show areas for improvement but also areas of success. The research is placed in the context of Poland’s unique historical, cultural, political, and socio-economic arrangements.
