Description 318-325
This study investigates the effect of scientific position, service tenure, and age of women scientists of various research
laboratories of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India on the research productivity. Drawing on a
sample of 902 women scientists of various research laboratories, with their 22,617 publications extracted from Web of
Science & Scopus databases, the results show that CSIR scientists have more women per laboratory, DST women scientists
have more publication per scientists and DBT women scientists received more citations. The majority of the publications
were published by scientists who have post-doctoral or doctorate degrees and most of the papers were published by the
women scientists between age 31 and 40. However, per scientist publication reveals that there is a continuous increase of
publication with the increase of service and physical age. Therefore, better funding opportunities for young researchers and
retaining experienced women scientists for more years may be important to increase women's participation in science.
