研究美国顶尖商学院MBA毕业生的职业发展,发现男女收入起初相近,但十年后男性收入高出近60%,主要源于培训差异、职业中断和工时不同,而女性职业中断和工时减少多与生育相关。

Abstract

The careers of MBAs from a top US business school are studied to understand how career dynamics differ by gender. Although male and female MBAs have nearly identical earnings at the outset of their careers, their earnings soon diverge, with the male earnings advantage reaching almost 60 log points a decade after MBA completion. Three proximate factors account for the large and rising gender gap in earnings: differences in training prior to MBA graduation, differences in career interruptions, and differences in weekly hours. The greater career discontinuity and shorter work hours for female MBAs are largely associated with motherhood.
