Replication Data for Women's Participation in Student Software Teams

A 241.5 KB dataset used in a replication study of research on women's participation in student software development teams. The dataset contains primary data and analysis results structured around three hypotheses from the original 2025 study, including estimation probabilities for roles in teams. It was authored by Simona Motogna and last updated on April 9, 2026.

Use Cases

• Replicate findings on gender-based role distribution in student teams based on the described hypotheses.
• Analyze estimation probabilities for software development roles within teams.
• Conduct secondary analysis on factors influencing women's participation in collaborative software projects.

Strengths

• Dataset is explicitly linked to a peer-reviewed IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering publication from 2025.
• Data is structured around three specific hypotheses, providing a clear analytical framework.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, requiring manual inspection after download.
• The 241.5 KB size indicates a very limited scope, likely containing summary or aggregated data rather than raw observations.
