Labor Force Participation, Work Experience, and the Pay Gap Between Men and Women.
Mallan, Lucy B.
Journal of Human Resources, v17 n3 p437-48 Sum 1982
The major finding of this study is that the rise in female labor force participation rates from 1956 to 1975 did not lower the overall level of experience. The widening gap between male and female earnings is attributed to the effects of discrimination and role differentiation. (SK)
