Abstract: |
The data set contains all observations (Norwegian Supreme Court cases 2008-2019 decided in five-justice panels) and variables (independent variables measuring presiding justice, case complexity, opinion heterogeneity, justice's background, chief term, and workload, and dependent variable measuring the duration of case disposition time) relevant for a replication of the study. |
In addition to the ReadMe-file, there are two files containing identical data, but in different formats: a *.dta file in Stata 17.0 format and a *.txt file that can be read with a browser or Notepad. The *,txt file can be imported into various statistical software. |

ABSTRACT OF STUDY: What is the effect of gender on the deliberative process of judging? Drawing on previous research on female leaders’ inclination to foster a more inclusive and collaborative decision-making process, we argue that decision making takes more time in a collegial court when female justices preside over decisional panels. Analyzing an original data set on cases decided by the Norwegian Supreme Court between 2008 and 2019, we find that when a woman is the presiding justice, the duration of case disposition time increases. This effect, however, persists for only eight days. Our finding suggests that institutional practices take effect over gendered effects. |
