TL;DR: This paper found that returns to education in terms of occupational prestige were smaller for women than for men in 1979, even when work experience, marital status, & presence of children variables were specified.
Abstract: Continuation of an investigation of gender differences in the effects of education on occupational level. The first part (see SA 35:3/87R5999) found that returns to education in terms of occupational prestige were smaller for women than for men in 1979, even when work experience, marital status, & presence of children variables were specified. For 1960, this was also the case, except for higher educated Fs. Comparison of data for 1960 & 1979 shows that returns to education were smaller in 1979 than in 1960, & that gender differences had increased over time. The different selection of Fs in the labor market in 1969 & 1979 is discussed as an important explanation for the findings. 6 Tables, 32 References. Modified HA

Abstract: Analysis of data from the Dutch 1979 Labor Force Survey reveals gender differences in the effects of educational attainment on occupational attainment in the Netherlands: ie, Fs have smaller returns from education than do Ms. These differences persist when work-experience is held constant & when marital status & presence of children are specified. Within occupational groups, no substantial association is found between the % of Fs in an occupational group &: (1) occupational level of Ms; (2) differences in the occupational level of Ms & Fs; or (3) effect of educational attainment on occupational level. 4 Tables, 18 References.
