Factors Affecting the Output and Quit Propensities of Production Workers
构建联立方程模型，分析生产工人的工资、产出、教育与离职倾向的关系，发现教育高于预期的人离职倾向更低，且高产出工人更易离职。
The authors formulate a simultaneous-equation model to explain the wages, output, education, and quit propensities of a sample of production workers. Their principal finding is that individuals that choose more education than they would expect from their observed characteristics have lower than expected quit propensities. This relationship would bias standard estimates of rates of return to education. The authors also find that the output of nonwhites was no lower than that of whites, although their wages on previous jobs were lower, and that workers with high levels of output were more likely to quit than were workers whose output was average.
