Gender as an Impediment to Labor Market Success: Why Do Young Women Report Greater Harm?
研究发现年轻女性求职者比年长女性更可能报告性别阻碍其找到好工作，且这一现象无法用个人特征或客观歧视解释，可能源于年轻人更倾向于将性别相关的不利待遇归因于性别。
Compared to older women, young female job seekers are more than three times as likely to report that their ability to find a good new job is compromised by their gender. This phenomenon cannot be statistically attributed to observed personal or job characteristics, or to any "objective" measure of discrimination. Further, women's reports of gender-induced advantage, and men's reports of gender-induced harm, are also more prevalent among the young. A possible interpretation of all these patterns is that young people are more likely to interpret a given departure from gender-neutral treatment as causally affected by their gender.
