Gender Differences in Beliefs on the Returns to Effort: Evidence from the World Values Survey
利用世界价值观调查数据，发现女性比男性更倾向于认为成功靠运气，并检验了职场歧视、家庭责任等解释。
We study gender differences in attitudes in the role of luck versus hard work in achieving success using data from the World Values Survey. Women are consistently more likely to report that success is a matter of luck. We consider several potential explanations: workplace discrimination, religion, household responsibilities, and political alignment. Our results favor explanations based on workplace discrimination and household responsibilities.
