The Evolution of Educational Wage Differentials for Women and Men, 1996 to 2019.Ordemann, J., & Pfeiffer, F. (2021, August).The Evolution of Educational Wage Differentials for Women and Men, 1996 to 2019. Vortrag auf der Konferenz ASA 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting (VAM), American Sociological Association, Chicago, USA. Abstract
From the perspective of the higher education expansion in Germany, the paper concentrates on the development of the higher education wage premium from 1996 to 2018. We ask how the wage premium develops over that time frame and which factors explain the trend we find. Using 206,904 observations of individual-level data of the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) we show a general upward trend in wage premiums. At the same time the wage premiums for university graduates lose their upward dynamic towards the end of the observation window, especially for men. |
