Although it is not the only output of academic productivity and representation, authorship can be considered as an important outcome. The present study aims to explore obstetrics and gynecology literature in Turkey, to assess the representation of women in academic journals as the author, of the male gender, and the inter-annual variation of article types. The journals which were indexed in the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, National Academic Network and Information Center’s Turkish journal index in 2020, were included in the study. The volumes of the journals in 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020, investigated online. Year of the articles, gender of the first author, gender of the last author, gender of corresponder author, number of female authors, number of male authors were coded.The variables of year, first author gender, last author gender, correspondent author gender, number of female authors, number of male authors were coded. A total of 1312 articles from 7 journals were analyzed. The gender inequality in the position of the first writer has been closed by years, and the gender inequality in the position of the writer responsible for correspondence has disappeared; however, there was no statistically significant change in the position of the last author from 1995 to 2020. In order to eliminate the current inequality in leadership positions, the clinical and educational work should be shared among the academicians in a balanced way, work environments where work life balance can be achieved should be created, sexual harassment and gender-based discrimination should not be tolerated.

Makale yazarlığı akademik üretkenliğin ve temsiliyetin tek çıktısı olmamakla birlikte, önemli bir çıktısı olarak değerlendirilebilir. Çalışmamız Türkiye’de kadın hastalıkları ve doğum akademik dergilerinde kadın ve erkek cinsiyetlerinin yazar olarak temsiliyetini ve makale türünün yıllar arası değişimini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. 2020 yılında Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu Ulusal Akademik Ağ ve Bilgi Merkezi tarafından oluşturulan Türkçe dergi dizininde yer almış dergilerin 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015 ve 2020 yıllarında yayınlanmış sayılarından çevrimiçi ulaşılabilenler çalışmamıza dâhil edilmiştir. Makalelerin yıl, ilk yazar cinsiyeti, son yazar cinsiyeti, yazışmadan sorumlu yazar cinsiyeti, kadın yazar sayısı, erkek yazar sayısı değişkenleri kodlanmıştır Toplam 7 dergiden 1312 makale incelenmiştir. İlk yazar konumundaki cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin yıllara göre kapandığı, yazışmadan sorumlu yazar konumundaki cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin kaybolduğu; ancak son yazar konumunda 1995 yılından 2020 yılına dek istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir değişme olmadığı görülmüştür. Liderlik konumlarındaki mevcut eşitsizliğin giderilebilmesi için akademisyenler arasında klinisyenlik ve eğitim görevlerinin dengeli bir biçimde paylaştırılması, iş ve özel hayat dengesinin sağlanabileceği çalışma ortamlarının yaratılması, cinsel tacize ve cinsiyete dayalı ayrımcılığa tolerans gösterilmemesi önerilmektedir.
