Market Friendly or Family Friendly? The State and Gender Inequality in Old Age, by Madonna Harrington Meyer and Pamela Herd
The Committee on Economic Education
The percentage of women economics majors has stagnated for decades. This is creating a bottleneck in the pipeline of female economists. The Committee on Economic Education (CEE) of the American Economic Association (AEA) is charged with fostering economic understanding and effective teaching. An examination of its structure, membership and activities over the past 35 years, however, suggests that it has narrowed the scope of economic ideas presen…
The Long-Term Impact of Labor Market Interruptions
In this day of two earner and single adult families many women and a small but growing minority of men face the decision whether and when to drop out of the labor force for a time, most often in order to take care of young children or in some cases of elderly family members. In addition, both women and men face the risk of occasional interruptions in their labor force participation when they are unable to find a job. In this study we use the NLSY…
Reconciling Work and Family Responsibilities
Race, Ethnicity, and Social Security Retirement Age in the us
This study uses the AHEAD survey to examine the effects of increasing the Social Security retirement age in the United States by modeling the labor force participation decisions of men and women over the age of 65. Separate probit analyses by gender with interaction terms indicate that race/ethnicity is only marginally important in these decisions after controlling for key factors such as health, physical and mental disabilities, education, and n…
Do Detailed Work Histories Help to Explain Gender and Race/Ethnic Wage Differentials
The continuing gender and race/ethnic pay gaps continue to be a matter of considerable concern. Using detailed NLSY data we examine the effects of a number of variables often thought to explain a large part of these gaps. Because the new variables explain some of the differentials our results provide no justification for ascribing all the remaining differentials to discrimination. On the other hand, they explain very little and therefore give no …
What Kind of Fairness Is Fair? A Comment on Conway and Roberts
In his previous work, Roberts (1979,1980) emphasized problems of measurement and possible bias involved in using direct regression, where reward is the dependent variable, and the independent variables consist of a vector of qualifications. He also suggested that these problems could, to a large extent, be solved by using reverse regression, where reward is the independent variable, and the dependent variable consists of a measure of qualificatio…
Estimating the Parameters of a Household Production Function with Joint Products
By estimating the parameters of a production function whose inputs consist of family time and market goods, the authors offer some new microeconomic estimates of the value of production that takes place in the home and also examine the concept of joint production-that is, the degree to which time devoted to home production simultaneously serves as leisure. They find evidence of substantial jointness between home production time and leisure, the d…
Traditional or Reverse Sex Discrimination? A Case Study of a Large Public University
This study assesses the extent and causes of recent sex discrimination in academic positions at a large public university. Performing multiple regression analysis on data for all individuals hired for full-time faculty positions during the academic years 1975-76 through 1978-79 at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, the authors find that women are paid less ($2,200 less, on average) than men when such usual criteria as highest degree, e…
Men and Women in Fiduciary Institutions
M UCH research has been done in recent years examining the differentials in earnings of men and women in particular occupations.' While these studies have contributed considerably to our understanding of this earnings gap, they tend to accept the occupations as given and do not examine the extent to which men and women have a different occupational distribution or question the reasons for it. In some types of jobs this question does not arise at …
