1.	Labor Market Structure and Sex Differences in Occupational Careers Presented: Chicago, IL, American Statistical Association Annual Meetings, 1977 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Older Men, Young Men, Young Women Publisher: American Statistical Association Keyword(s): Career Patterns; Children; Earnings; Life Cycle Research; Marital Status; Schooling; Socioeconomic Status (SES) Results suggest the utility of a career concept for understanding the variety of factors that affect the distribution of socioeconomic rewards to individuals over their employment lifecycles. We have found evidence for the varying impact of labor market characteristics and family status, as well as personal resources, for men and women and across stages of the life cycle.

2.	Wage Change in the Late Career: A Model for the Outcomes of Job Sequences Social Science Research 8,1 (March 1979): 16-40. Also: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0049089X79900127 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: Academic Press, Inc. Keyword(s): Career Patterns; Job Tenure; Life Cycle Research; Private Sector; Schooling; Wages; Work History This paper elaborates a model for the outcomes of job sequences and illustrates its utility by an empirical analysis of the determinants of wage change for men in their late careers. We argue that job sequences represent the basic components of careers and that a focus on these sequences is useful for explaining the determinants of socioeconomic inequality over the life cycle. Our model permits us to estimate the effects on wage change of a wide array of personal resources and measures of the opportunity structure. We further assess how these types of factors differentially affect wage change for various patterns of labor market behavior and for blacks vs. whites. Our empirical analysis of data from the NLS of Older Men suggests the importance of patterns of job sequences for wage change and for the explanation of racial differentials in career advancement.

3.	Stepping Stone versus Dead End Jobs: Occupational Pathways out of Working Poverty in the NLSY 1979-2006 Presented: Atlanta GA, American Sociological Association Annual Meeting, August 2010 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: American Sociological Association Keyword(s): Current Population Survey (CPS) / CPS-Fertility Supplement; Mobility, Economic; Occupational Prestige; Occupations; Wages Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In this paper we test for the existence of pathways of upward mobility for low wage workers by studying patterns of intragenerational occupational mobility in the National Longitudinal Study of Youth (NLSY) from 1979-2006. We argue that stepping stone links of upward mobility between specific pairs of occupations can be identified by whether or not the accumulation of experience increases the probability of movement between these occupations. In contrast, a dead end job is one which both pays low wages and where the accumulation of occupational experience reduces the probability of upward mobility. We use two data sets to detect potential stepping stone links between occupations. First, we measure the skill similarity between occupations using data on occupational skill requirements from the O*NET occupational database. Second, we use data on occupational mobility from matched samples of the Current Population Survey (CPS) to identify possible career ladders based on either significant one-way flows between occupations or positive age effects on occupational transitions. We test these links using data on career histories from the NLSY. A key aspect of our approach is an empirical strategy that simultaneously models wage mobility (a dichotomous indicator of low versus high pay) and occupational mobility (among detailed 3-digit occupations). In order to estimate our models with detailed occupations and multiple observations for each individual, we first randomly sample from the choice set of occupations and then use a latent-class conditional logit model (Train 2008) to allow for individual heterogeneity.

4.	"Stepping-Stone" Versus "Dead-End" Jobs: Occupational Structure, Work Experience, and Mobility Out of Low-Wage Jobs American Sociological Review 89,2 (March 2024). Also: https://doi.org/10.1177/00031224241232957 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: American Sociological Association Keyword(s): Mobility; Mobility, Economic; Mobility, Occupational; Mobility, Wage; Wage Levels; Wages; Wages, Low Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Does working in a low-wage job lead to increased opportunities for upward mobility, or is it a dead-end that traps workers? In this article, we examine whether low-wage jobs are "stepping-stones" that enable workers to move to higher-paid jobs that are linked by institutional mobility ladders and skill transferability. To identify occupational linkages, we create two measures of occupational similarity using data on occupational mobility from matched samples of the Current Population Survey (CPS) and data on multiple dimensions of job skills from the O*NET. We test whether work experience in low-wage occupations increases mobility between linked occupations that results in upward wage mobility. Our analysis uses longitudinal data on low-wage workers from the 1979 National Longitudinal Study of Youth (NLSY) and the 1996 to 2008 panels of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP). We test the stepping-stone perspective using multinomial conditional logit (MCL) models, which allow us to analyze the joint effects of work experience and occupational linkages on achieving upward wage mobility. We find evidence for stepping-stone mobility in certain areas of the low-wage occupational structure. In these occupations, low-wage workers can acquire skills through work experience that facilitate upward mobility through occupational changes to skill and institutionally linked occupations.
