The topic of gender budgeting in the academic field has been widely investigated from different perspectives. Much research has gone into analyzing the models of women’s career advancement in universities. Generally, some studies based from a feminist perspective (O’Neil et al., 2008; White, 1995) argue that existing models, such as Levinson et al. (1978) proposing linear progression through a series of life stages, are based on male patterns of behavior. In contrast, O’ Neil et al. (2008) suggest that women’s career advancement follows different dynamics than men. For example, O’Leary and Sandberg (2008) observes that women measure success less by corporate advancement and more by subjective e measures such as personal satisfaction and growth. Concerning the academic contest, Probert (2005) shows that women are underrepresented in Australian universities because they have less human capital than men, measured in formal qualifications and work experience
Il tema del gender budgeting in ambito accademico è stato ampiamente studiato da diverse prospettive. Molte ricerche sono state dedicate all'analisi dei modelli di avanzamento di carriera delle donne nelle università. In generale, alcuni studi si basano su una prospettiva femminista (O'Neil et al., 2008; White, 1995) sostengono che i modelli esistenti, come Levinson et al. (1978) proponendo una progressione lineare attraverso una serie di fasi della vita, si basano su modelli di comportamento maschili. Al contrario, O'Neil et al. (2008) suggeriscono che l'avanzamento di carriera delle donne segue dinamiche diverse rispetto agli uomini. Ad esempio, O'Leary e Sandberg (2008) osserva che le donne misurano il successo meno in base al progresso aziendale e più in base a e misure soggettive come la soddisfazione personale e la crescita. Per quanto riguarda il concorso accademico, Probert (2005) mostra che le donne sono sotto rappresentate nelle università australiane perché hanno meno capitale umano di uomini, misurati in qualifiche formali ed esperienze lavorative

Abstract
The topic of gender budgeting in the academic field has been widely investigated from different perspectives. Much research has gone into analyzing the models of women’s career advancement in universities. Generally, some studies based from a feminist perspective (O’Neil et al., 2008; White, 1995) argue that existing models, such as Levinson et al. (1978) proposing linear progression through a series of life stages, are based on male patterns of behavior. In contrast, O’ Neil et al. (2008) suggest that women’s career advancement follows different dynamics than men. For example, O’Leary and Sandberg (2008) observes that women measure success less by corporate advancement and more by subjective e measures such as personal satisfaction and growth. Concerning the academic contest, Probert (2005) shows that women are underrepresented in Australian universities because they have less human capital than men, measured in formal qualifications and work experienceI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
