Abstract

La littérature sur la satisfaction vis-à-vis du travail a montré que les femmes déclarent en moyenne un degré de satisfaction plus élevé que les hommes, alors que leurs conditions d'emploi sont généralement moins attractives. Cependant, les théories mobilisées pour expliquer ce paradoxe (théorie des attentes et théorie des préférences) suggèrent que ce dernier doit disparaître pour les niveaux élevés de diplôme. Nous testons cela en nous intéressant à l'effet du genre sur la satisfaction vis-à-vis du début de carrière postdoctorale chez les docteurs, tout en tenant compte de la qualité des conditions d'emploi. Nos données proviennent d'une enquête menée auprès de docteurs ayant soutenu en Île-de-France entre 2012 et 2015 et ayant trouvé un emploi depuis, que ce soit dans le public ou le privé. Nous montrons grâce à des modèles avec effets de médiation que le genre n'a pas d'effet significatif, ni direct ni indirect (en passant par la qualité des conditions d'emploi), sur la satisfaction vis-à-vis du début de carrière après le doctorat, alors que la qualité des conditions d'emploi est liée significativement et positivement à la satisfaction.
