Gender Differences in Accepting and Receiving Requests for Tasks with Low Promotability
研究发现女性比男性更可能自愿承担、被请求承担并接受低晋升性任务（如写报告、加入委员会），部分原因是人们认为女性更可能答应这类请求，这可能加剧劳动力市场中的垂直性别隔离。
Gender differences in task allocations may sustain vertical gender segregation in labor markets. We examine the allocation of a task that everyone prefers be completed by someone else (writing a report, serving on a committee, etc.) and find evidence that women, more than men, volunteer, are asked to volunteer, and accept requests to volunteer for such tasks. Beliefs that women, more than men, say yes to tasks with low promotability appear as an important driver of these differences. If women hold tasks that are less promotable than those held by men, then women will progress more slowly in organizations.
