Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026💡 Understanding this bias helps explain broader challenges women face in political leadership roles and may inform reforms in parliamentary practices. 020
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026⚖️ Tighter scrutiny can create unequal working conditions: women ministers have to respond to more questions and justify decisions more often, thus, having less time for policy-making. 110
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026🔍 Based on interviews with 32 MPs we explore why this pattern exists: MPs implicit assumptions that women are less capable or trustworthy are drivers of increased scrutiny. 110
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026📈 The findings are clear: women ministers receive more oversight (written and oral questions) than male ministers across similar contexts. 110
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026📊 Using data from five European democracies since 1990, we analyze how often MPs ask written and oral questions to ministers. 110
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026🤔 The core argument: parliamentarians ask more questions to women than men ministers because of stereotypes about competence and trustworthiness i.e., bias, not performance. 110
Sarah C. Dingler @sarahdingler.bsky.social · 23/01/2026📚 Our findings in short: Oversight is not neutral. Gender shapes how ministers are treated in parliament-even in established democracies. 110
