Sažetak
The paper intended for conference presentation focuses on professionally rewarding young researchers’ egocentric networks. It does so through analyses of differences in network structure and career related outcomes of male and female researchers. Data about professionally rewarding egocentric networks are obtained through the on-line questionnaire on the representative sample of 240 Croatian young researchers (in terms of academic age) from all academic disciplines. Through analysis, this paper tries to discern more about the functioning of disciplines and institutions in which those networks are embedded. Findings of the corenetworks structure characteristics are analyzed in the context of productivity and PhD thesis completion of young researchers in order to better understand the “success” or “appropriateness” of the types of networks that support young researchers professionally. All these results are analyzed in the context of gender differences, showing how gender plays an important role in all academic disciplines, not just in terms of network structure but also in terms of network related career outcomes
