A Field Experiment of Discrimination in the Norwegian Housing Market: Gender, Class, and Ethnicity
通过伪造申请信测试挪威租房市场中的性别、阶层和种族歧视，发现女性、高职位和挪威族裔更易获积极回应，其中种族歧视最为普遍。
We test for gender, class, and ethnic discrimination in the Norwegian rental housing market by using fake application letters. Females, individuals with high job status, and ethnic Norwegians are more likely to receive positive responses. For example, being an Arabic man and working in a warehouse is associated with a 25 percentage point lower probability of receiving a positive response when showing interest in an apartment, as compared to an ethnically Norwegian female economist. We conclude that gender, class, and ethnic discrimination do exist in the Norwegian housing market, and ethnic discrimination seems to be the most prevalent form of discrimination. <i></i>
