The Expanding Gender Earnings Gap: Evidence from the LEHD-2000 Census
利用LEHD-2000年人口普查数据，研究大学毕业生在毕业14年后的性别收入差距扩大现象，发现约44%源于男性向高收入职位、行业和企业的转移，56%源于企业内部性别差异。
The gender earnings gap is an expanding statistic over the lifecycle. We use the LEHD Census 2000 to understand the roles of industry, occupation, and establishment 14 years after leaving school. The gap for college graduates 26 to 39 years old expands by 34 log points, most occurring in the first 7 years. About 44 percent is due to disproportionate shifts by men into higher-earning positions, industries, and firms and about 56 percent to differential advances by gender within firms. Widening is greater for married individuals and for those in certain sectors. Non-college graduates experience less widening but with similar patterns.
