An Empirical Examination of the Occupational Attainment of American Veterans of World War I
Objectives The occupational distributions of World War I (WWI) veterans and nonveterans are compared to determine if military service enhanced a worker's occupational mobility. Methods Qualitative‐response logistic regressions are estimated using U.S. Census data from 1930 to 1950. Results WWI veterans are more likely to be employed in higher skilled occupations than nonveterans, after controlling for education, age, and other demographic traits.…
An empirical assessment of the wage premium for American veterans of World War II
This paper examines U.S. census data from 1960 to 1980 to assess the relative wages of WWII veteran and non-veteran men. Our analysis reveals that a significant portion wage gap between veterans and non-veterans (the “veteran wage premium”) is due primarily to differences in education, work experience and other socioeconomic characteristics. Our findings are consistent with the notion that greater human capital, due perhaps to the selection proce…
Not So Black and White
Jackie Robinson was the first acknowledged Black player in 20th century Major League Baseball (MLB). By 1951, a few Black players had performed credibly at the Major League level, while others were integrating Minor League Baseball. Unlike other labor situations where proxies for productivity must be used, Minor League players at the AAA level-the level just below the Major Leagues-performed and compiled their playing statistics under similar com…
A longitudinal examination of earnings inequality and mobility among young, full-time workers in the United States
This paper analyzes longitudinal data on earnings inequality and mobility for young, year-round full-time wage and salary workers in the United States. In general, we find that although real earnings across quintiles increased during the 1990s, earnings inequality continued to grow and upward earnings mobility declined slightly during the decade
The Impact of Changes in Local Labor Market Conditions on Estimates of Occupational Segregation
Recent work by labor economists has suggested that differential labor market treatment of minorities (e.g., occupational segregation) may vary across local labor markets. This study assesses whether changing economic conditions in a local labor market affects the degree of occupational segregation by race and gender in the United States. Our empirical analysis finds evidence that the relative occupational structures of white women and black males…
A Comparison of the Occupational Distributions of Native- and Foreign-Born Males
A qualitative response model of occupational choice is employed to investigate differences in the occupational structures of native-and foreign-born men in the United States labor market. Analysis of data from the 1980 U.S. Census of Population indicates that, given their human capital trails, foreign-born males are proportionately represented across occupational categories. The results are supportive of the hypothesis of Chiswickand others that,…
An Examination of Market Efficiency in British Racetrack Betting
The nature of the British racetrack betting market provides a distinctly different opportunity for testing market efficiency. On the basis of data from a single racing season, we compare the returns to two similar forms of bettings: (1) starting price bets placed with bookmakers and (2) pari-mutuel tote bets. Our analysis indicates that tote returns are consistently higher than starting price returns, even though both betting forms are of similar…
