Intergenerational Occupational Choice Comparisons: The Case of Teachers in the UK
利用两代英国毕业生的数据，分析自1970年以来教师职业选择的变化，考察薪酬、士气、地位等因素对男女选择教师职业的影响，并估算薪酬变化对选择概率的贡献。
This paper examines how UK graduate occupational choices have changed since 1970, with reference to the choice of becoming a teacher using two cohorts of data. Remuneration, morale, status and image of the teaching profession have been altered dramatically. The sensitivity of the teacher choice to relative wage changes is examined and compared for men and women separately. The paper presents a counterfactual prediction of the decisions which each cohort would have made had they experienced the market conditions of the other and estimates a decomposition of the changes in the average probabilities due to remunerative and other factors.
