    El estudio de viñeta para el análisis de las contrataciones laborales: una perspectiva crítica
    (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 2022-10-20) Martínez Pastor, Juan Ignacio; Fernández Lozano, Irina
    Un estudio de viñeta es, en esencia, una encuesta diseñada ad hoc consistente en evaluar escenarios ficticios por parte de las personas encuestadas, de tal manera que de dicha evaluación se puedan inferir opiniones o actitudes que en encuestas tradicionales no suelen salir a la luz. Sus ventajas principales son dos: en primer lugar, que, en virtud del diseño de la encuesta, se eliminan las correlaciones existentes entre variables que siempre se dan en poblaciones reales, lo que permite desentrañar mejor los efectos de esas variables; y, en segundo lugar, que las personas encuestadas responden indirectamente a las preguntas de investigación, por lo que esta técnica trata de eliminar sesgos de deseabilidad social. Tras revisar las características básicas de la técnica, el artículo plantea su utilidad desde un punto de vista crítico en relación con los siguientes aspectos: con los sesgos de deseabilidad social, con el hecho de plantear situaciones hipotéticas y no analizar comportamientos reales y, sobre todo, con su validez externa cuando se aplica a colectivos muy concretos (o hasta qué punto se pueden generalizar los resultados de este tipo de estudios).

    Caring fathers in Europe: Toward universal caregiver families?
    (Wiley, 2022-12-30) Martínez Pastor, Juan Ignacio; Jurado Guerrero, Teresa; Fernández Lozano, Irina; Castellanos Serrano, Cristina
    Increasingly, men are challenging the assumption that care is a feminine task and are involving themselves in childcare and the care of dependent adults. However, this does not necessarily have consequences for their work, as they very rarely make costly adaptations in their working lives. In this study, we propose a definition of a man in care (MIC) as a working father who, in order to meet care needs, has adapted his working life in a way that potentially entails a financial penalty. We analyze the prevalence of men in care among men living with children below the age of 15 across the EU-27 plus Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and the UK using recent representative data (the European Labour Survey and its 2018 ad hoc module on work-life balance). We find that although the number of men engaging in costly work adaptations is still very low when compared to their female counterparts, the characteristics of these men can be clearly outlined: they have a non-manual occupation (managers excluded), they have temporary contracts or are self-employed, they are partnered to women who hold jobs of 40 or more hours a week and have a high educational attainment, and they work in family-friendly companies. Also, at the context level, the prevalence of MIC is clearly elated to gender equality and values. However, we do not find evidence of any country having reached the universal caregiver model proposed by Nancy Fraser, including those with more advanced gender and welfare regimes.

    The Hidden Cost of Flexibility: A Factorial Survey Experiment on Job Promotion
    (Oxford University Press, 2020-04) Fernández Lozano, Irina; González, Mª José; Jurado Guerrero, Teresa; Martínez Pastor, Juan Ignacio
    This article analyses the role of gender, parenthood, and work flexibility measures and the mediating role of stereotypes on the likelihood of achieving an internal promotion in Spain. We hypothesize that employers favour fathers over mothers and disfavour flexible workers (flexibility stigma) because they are perceived, respectively, as less competent and less committed. We also hypothesize that employers reflect their gender values in the selection process. These hypotheses are tested using data from a survey experiment in which 71 supervisors from private companies evaluate 426 short vignettes describing six different candidates for promotion into positions that require decision-making and team supervision skills. Several candidate characteristics are experimentally manipulated, while others such as skills and experience in the company are kept constant to minimize the risk of statistical discrimination. Contrary to our expectations, fathers are not preferred in promotion, as they are not perceived as being more competent than mothers. However, we find that flexibility leads to lower promotion scores, partly due to its association with a lack of commitment. Although the statutory right to reduce working hours for care reasons seems a major social achievement, this experiment shows that mothers may be indirectly penalized, as they are the main users of this policy.
