Resumen

Resumen La actividad científica desempeñada por mujeres difiere bajo varios puntos de vista de la de los hombres, tanto en términos de producción como de impacto. En este trabajo, comparamos la actividad científica de 349 profesores y profesoras del área de Biblioteconomía y Documentación (ByD) afiliados con universidades españolas, con base en el análisis de su trayectoria de publicación en revistas vaciadas en Scopus. Se analizan las publicaciones de la muestra atendiendo a tres indicadores de interdisciplinariedad (variedad, equilibrio y disparidad), y midiendo la disparidad a través de métodos de Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural (PNL) y Recuperación de Información (RI). A pesar de no encontrar diferencias importantes en las tres dimensiones, los datos obtenidos apuntan a la posible inadecuación de los índices de citas de reflejar las actividades académica desempeñadas por las mujeres en toda su variedad, así como a la necesidad de comparar la producción de hombres y mujeres con base en el análisis temático de los contenidos producidos.
