Do Men Whose Wives Work Really Earn Less
质疑管理学期刊中关于妻子不工作的丈夫工资更高的研究,指出其概念框架和统计方法存在缺陷,并重新检验婚姻状况与工资的关系。
It is common knowledge among empirical labor economists that household-status variables can enter significantly in wage equations. In particular, a substantial marital wage premium for men has been noted. Recently a series of articles in the management literature has argued that an even larger premium accrues to those married men whose wives do not work for pay (single-earner husbands). Our current study arises in response to perceived deficiencies in the conceptual framework and statistical methods used in these studies.
