Quits and Race
以往研究认为黑人辞职率低于白人,但本文指出这些估计忽略了通勤时间和当地失业率对辞职行为的种族差异,控制这些因素后,黑人的辞职倾向实际上更高。
Previous studies estimate that black quit rates are lower than those of whites. This paper suggests that these estimates under-state black quit propensities because they neglect racial differences in quit responses to commuting time and local unemployment rates. Ignoring these differences, the black quit effect appears to be negative. Controlling for them, the residual race effect is positive and sufficiently large to account for all net black quits.
