估计了一个基于Tinbergen(1956)的工作选择模型,其中效用取决于工作复杂度和工资率,均衡工资结构补偿了更复杂的工作。研究发现女性在不同工作级别上的工资斜率更陡,且个人在工资与工作复杂度之间的边际替代率随两者增加而上升。

Abstract

The authors estimate a model inspired by J. Tinbergen's 1956 article, with utility maximizing job choice, where utility depends on job complexity and the wage rate, and where the equilibrium wage structure provides for compensation for more complex jobs. It involves maximum likelihood estimation of a two-equation model with heteroscedastic errors, in which one of the equations is an ordered probit. In the wage function, individual characteristics and job level interact (comparative advantage). Females face a steeper wage slope across job levels. Individuals' marginal rate of substitution between wage and job complexity is increasing both in job complexity and wages.
