Selectivity Bias and Comparative Advantage: A Generalized Approach Presented: San Diego, CA, Western Economics Association Meetings, 1980 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: Western Economic Association International Keyword(s): Career Patterns; Earnings; Education Indicators; Research Methodology; Selectivity Bias/Selection Bias The two stage method of multiple decision-making has been generalized and correlation between these decisions has been allowed for. The earnings of young women are studied in this expanded framework and it is found that comparative advantage exists in this NLS data set. In addition, the estimates of the conditional wage equations generally support the argument that these women are making income maximizing choices, which has been an implicit assumption in most of the literature on female labor force participation. |
