Questions from Blau and Kahn 2007, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The Gender Pay Gap,\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd pp. 7-23:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

7. Based on Blau and Kahn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s (2007) analysis, what factors help explain the gender pay gap (e.g., the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcwage differential\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 between men and women who are working full-time)? What is the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcunexplained\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 portion of the gap? Be sure to note which characteristics have a larger statistical effect than others.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

8. According to Blau and Kahn (2007), how did the gender pay gap change over the late 20th century? What factors account for the change (or lack thereof) in the gender pay gap? (This is related to the previous question, but is asking about what explains the change or absence of change over time, rather than simply asking what characteristics account for the pay gap). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
