Community College Enrollment, College Major, and the Gender Wage Gap.
Gill, Andrew M.; Leigh, Duane E.
Industrial and Labor Relations Review, v54 n1 p163-81 Oct 2000
Independent cross-sections developed using National Longitudinal Survey data reveal a decrease in the gender wage gap from 1989-1994 due to fewer differences in tenure and full-time employment. Disaggregating education by two- and four-year providers and college major accounts for 8.5-11% of the narrower wage gap for the period. (SK)
