Abstract
This paper examines the effects of a scholar’s position and gender on publishing productivity in several types of scientific publications: monographs, articles in
journals, articles in edited books, and articles in conference proceedings. The data consist
of 1,367 scholars who worked at the University of Helsinki, Finland, during the period 2002–2004. The analysis shows that professors are the most productive, PhDs publish more than non-PhDs, and men perform better than women, also when other scholarly
characteristics are controlled for. These differences are greater for monographs and articles in edited books than for articles in journals. In terms of conference proceedings, no remarkable productivity differences were found.
