The Role of Labor Market Intermittency in Explaining Gender Wage Differentials
利用健康与退休调查数据，发现男女劳动力间歇性参与差异解释了观察到的特征差异对工资差距贡献的47%，若不控制间歇性行为，会高估工作特征差异的作用。
Using the Health and Retirement Survey and standard wage decomposition techniques, this paper finds that the difference in intermittent labor force participation between men and women accounts for 47 percent of the contribution to the wage gap of differences in observed characteristics. Not controlling for intermittent behavior results in too much importance being placed on gender differences in job characteristics.
