Sex Discrimination in Labor Markets: The Role of Statistical Evidence: Reply
利用统计测量的工资歧视与调查报告中歧视的相关性，估计统计证据对女性自我评估歧视程度的影响，发现统计证据的重要性远低于其他非统计证据，并预测年轻高学历女性是统计证据可采性的主要受益者。
Correlations between statistically-measured wage discrimination and confidential survey reports of discrimination are used to estimate the relative importance of statistical evidence in determining womens' self-assessed discrimination levels. Statistical evidence is found to be considerably less important than other nonstatistical evidence. Assuming courts weigh statistical versus other evidence as individuals do, the effects of making statistical evidence admissible are calculated. Young, well-educated women are predicted to be the main beneficiaries of this policy. Copyright 1987 by American Economic Association.
