Changes in Relative Wages, 1963-1987: Supply and Demand Factors
用简单的供需框架分析1963-1987年美国工资结构变化，发现对高学历、高技能工人和女性的需求快速增长是主要驱动力，大学工资溢价与大学毕业生供给增速波动密切相关。
A simple supply and demand framework is used to analyze changes in the U. S. wage structure from 1963 to 1987. Rapid secular growth in the demand for more-educated workers, "more-skilled" workers, and females appears to be the driving force behind observed changes in the wage structure. Measured changes in the allocation of labor between industries and occupations strongly favored college graduates and females throughout the period. Movements in the college wage premium over this period appear to be strongly related to fluctuations in the rate of growth of the supply of college graduates.
