Male-Female and Black-White Discrimination in the Labor Market Presented: San Francisco, CA, Econometric Society Meeting, 1974 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Older Men, Young Men, Young Women Publisher: Econometric Society Keyword(s): Discrimination, Racial/Ethnic; Discrimination, Sex; Employment; Job Training; Occupational Status; Wages Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In the present paper, some light is shed on the causes of male-female and black-white wage differentials. One of the important contributions of the present research is to compare the results for a more recent cohort of young people with earlier studies which examined older cohorts of persons over age twenty-five. In this paper we employ the measure of discrimination proposed by Alan Blinder, which involves decomposing characteristics into differences arising from endowments (differences in mean values) and differences in coefficients (market rewards for given levels of endowments). |
