Factors that contribute to the underrepresentation of women in science careers worldwide: a literature review (2020, background): “In addition, other authors refer to the model of social and structural factors (Ahuja 2002).”
Perceived career challenges and response strategies of women in the advanced technology sector (2012, background): “Individual-level barriers At the individual-level, gender schemas are evidenced in socialization processes, human capital (such as education and industry experience) and entrepreneurial outcomes (Chubin and Malcomm 1996; Ahuja 2002; Stewart 2008; Industry Canada 2010).”
Examining the moderating influence of gender on the relationships between work‐family antecedents and work‐family enrichment (2011, background): “Market changes are evident in increasing number of firms in the services sector ( Ahuja, 2002”
Gender and age differences in employee decisions about new technology: an extension to the theory of planned behavior (2005, background): “…approach, the changing nature of today’s workforce has signiﬁcantly broadened the typical user base in organizations and has spawned recent research focusing on the importance of gender (e.g., [1], [36], [75], and [87]) and age effects (e.g., [24]) on technology-related issues in the workplace.”

Standing on the Shoulders of Giants: Challenges and Recommendations of Literature Search in Information Systems Research (2015, background): “For example, Ahuja (2002) explores the role of women in the IT profession based on an integrative literature synthesis because a number of contemporary drivers had made it necessary to explore barriers to promoting women in IT. Gerwin and Barrowman (2002) conducted a meta-analysis on the characteris”
Reconstructing the giant: On the importance of rigour in documenting the literature search process (2009, unknown): “However, as underpinned by several IS reviews (e.g., Ahuja 2002, pp. 30ff.), the synthesis of literature is further expected to result into a research agenda (phase V), comprised of sharper and more insightful questions for future research (Webster and Watson 2002, p. xix).”
