利用伦敦商学院MBA毕业生的数据,发现女性起薪比从事相同职业的男性低约8.6%,为研究性别工资差异提供了新证据。
In this paper we use data from the London Business School of measuredifferences in outgoing salaries of male and female graduates with a Master's in Business Administration degree. This is a relatively homogeneous population of individuals with very similar educational backgrounds, limited work histories, and who enter very similar jobs upon completion oftheir degree. Controlling for differences in individual characteristics as reported on application forms, we (r)nd that the starting salaries of women are approximately 8.6 percent less than men in identical occupations.
