尽管朝着性别平等做出了努力，并且随着时间推移有了一些改善，但同行评审中的性别偏见仍然是一个普遍存在的问题。我们研究了《药物与酒精依赖》（DAD）同行评审过程中的性别代表性和同质性。
我们提取了2004年至2019年（含）期间提交给DAD的论文数据。使用NamSor性别推断应用程序编程接口（API）对处理编辑和评审人员进行了推断性别分配。
随着时间的推移，男性和女性处理编辑邀请女性评审人员的可能性大致相同，只有少数例外情况。随着时间的推移，47.1%的编辑为女性，42.6%的评审邀请发给了女性。随着时间的推移，男性接受评审邀请的可能性基本保持一致，而女性接受评审邀请的可能性随时间变化更大。接受评审邀请比率的性别差异很小；然而，近年来随着女性在所有受邀评审人员中接近半数，与男性相比，女性拒绝评审邀请的趋势更大。评审人员接受邀请方面同质性的证据很少，但在某些年份，观察到从同性别的编辑那里以更高比率接受评审邀请的倾向。
鉴于科学进步中多样性的益处，这些结果强调了继续努力提高编辑和评审人员群体中性别多样性的重要性，以及评审人员需要留意自身评审行为的必要性。
Despite efforts towards gender parity and some improvement over time, gender bias in peer review remains a pervasive issue. We examined gender representation and homophily in the peer review process for Drug and Alcohol Dependence (DAD). We extracted data for papers submitted to DAD between 2004 and 2019, inclusive. Inferred gender was assigned to handling editors and reviewers using the NamSor gender inference Application Programming Interface (API). Men and women handling editors were approximately equally likely to invite women reviewers over time, with only a few exceptions. Over time, 47.1% of editors were women, and 42.6% of review invitations were sent to women. Men were largely consistent over time in their likelihood of accepting a review invitation, while the likelihood of women accepting a review invitation was more variable over time. Gender differences in rates of accepting a review invitation were minimal; however, as women approached half of all invited reviewers in recent years, there has been a greater trend for women, relative to men, to decline review invitations. Evidence of homophily on the part of reviewers accepting invitations was minimal, but in certain years, a tendency to accept review invitations at higher rates from editors of the same gender was observed. Given the benefits of diversity in scientific advancement, these results underline the importance of continuing efforts to increase gender diversity among editors and in reviewer pools, and the need for reviewers to be mindful of their own reviewing practices.
