In this paper, we develop a gender-specific crosswalk based on dual-coded Current Population Survey data to bridge the … sources. We show that our gender-specific crosswalk more accurately captures the trends in occupational segregation that are … masked using the aggregate crosswalk (based on combined male and female employment) provided by the U.S. Census Bureau. Using …

The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique is widely used to identify and quantify the separate contributions of group … and gender gaps in outcomes. The technique cannot be used directly, however, if the outcome is binary and the coefficients … are from a logit or probit model. I describe a relatively simple method of performing a decomposition that uses estimates …

We address the bias from using potential vs. actual experience in earnings models. Statistical tests reject the classical errors-in-variable framework. The nature of the measurement error is best viewed as a model misspecification problem. We correct for this by modeling actual experience as a...

Using harmonised data from the European Union Household Panel, we analyse gender pay gaps by sector across the wages … distribution for ten countries. We find that the mean gender pay gap in the raw data typically hides large variations in the gap … men and women. We find that, first, gender pay gaps are typically bigger at the top of the wage distribution, a finding …

We estimate the relationship between wages and occupational gender segregation in Sweden. Because of high wage equality … in Sweden compared to the U.S., we expect a lower wage penalty of job femaleness in Sweden than in the U.S. Our results … supports this hypothesis. We also investigate how the unexplained gender wage gap vary across occupations and find that this …
