Do Colleges Shortchange Women? Gender Differences in the Transition from College to Work
利用美国学士及以上纵向调查数据，发现大学专业和资历的性别差异无法解释男女在劳动力市场上的收入差距；即使在科学领域，女性从事文职工作的可能性是男性的两倍以上。
Do gender differences in college majors and qualifications account for gender differences in labor market outcomes? For the overwhelming majority of men and women, The Baccalauarate and Beyond Longitudinal Study data suggest that the answer is no. Within the majority of majors and occupations, men earn more than women in first jobs. The exception to this is for science and humanities majors, were men do not obtain a wage advantage over women. However, even within the sciences, women are more than twice as likely as men to end up in clerical first jobs, which are considered by students to be among the least satisfactory jobs.
