Trends in Labor Force Transitions of Older Men and Women
利用当前人口调查数据，描述了近二十年老年男性和女性劳动力行为的主要趋势，发现提前退休显著增加且持续至80年代，低工资是区分提前退休倾向的关键因素。
The authors use the Current Population Survey to describe what they believe are the most salient aspects of labor force behavior of older men and women during the last two decades. First, they show that early retirement has increased dramatically and this trend continued through the 1980s. Second, the authors show that the factors that most sharply distinguish propensities toward early retirement are those usually associated with low wages. Third, they show that trends in reduced participation for older men parallel those for younger men, while a pattern of increasing female participation is to be expected given the behavior of younger cohorts.
