Research from University of Salford has provided new information about gender studies.
"Despite the dramatic increase of technology in the healthcare field, little is known of how care work and technical work are related. Examining substitute healthcare providers offers a useful illustration of the care-tech link because nursing (care) and medical (technical) models often merge," scientists writing in the journal Gender Work and Organization report (see also Gender Studies).
"Forty-two interviews with men and women (nurse practitioners, nurse anaesthetists and physician assistants) were conducted in the USA. The results showed that the gendered nature of care-tech boundaries has shifted in small but important ways and that the gendering of work influenced the shape of these boundaries. Men often encountered barriers when moving too far into the care realm and attempted to overcome this by 'caring cautiously' and emphasizing problem-solving care. Women faced similar barriers from the 'old boys network' when they entered highly technical areas," wrote S. Lindsay and colleagues, University of Salford.
