Toutkoushian, Robert K.
Economics of Education Review, v17 n1 p55-71 Feb 1998
Uses data from 1988 and 1993 National Center for Education Statistics surveys of faculty to examine what has happened to earnings of women in higher education. Data show the aggregate unexplained wage gap between men and women is between 7% and 10%. Wage gap for younger women is much lower than for older women in academe, suggesting some progress is being made. (31 references) (MLH)
