Book excerpt: The relative underrepresentation of women in economics education and academia is an issue that has been well-documented, yet remains contentious with regard to its exact origins and perpetuation. Further, the existing literature on economic education research offers little on the gender composition of the subfield and, by extension, if the gender gap present in the overarching field is also evident within. This dissertation seeks to rectify these gaps in the research through a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods, approaching women's representation in and experiences with economic education research from three different perspectives.
