The study looked at data from Australia to test a theory called the insider-outsider model. They wanted to see if there was a difference between people who are already part of a group (insiders) and those who are not (outsiders), and if this difference mattered more for men or women. The results showed that men have more power as insiders compared to women. This supports the idea that it is harder for outsiders to join certain groups, especially for women.
