Conference by Delphine Martinot, University Professor in Social Psychology (University of Clermont-Auvergne, Laboratory of Social and Cognitive Psychology, UMR CNRS, 6024)
The better school success of girls: a trompe-l'oeil effect

Conference on the occasion of the International Women's Rights Day on March 8, 2021
Girls do better at school than boys, from primary school to higher education. This observation dates back more than thirty years and has even led to the idea that schools favour girls.How then can we explain the fact that women continue to be under-represented in the fields of study considered to be the most prestigious and leading to careers in education?and leading to the most lucrative careers?
