Abstract

Purpose The study's objective is to measure the gender gap in quit behavior, consider whether it has changed over time and determine whether parenthood affects the gender gap in quit decisions. Design/methodology/approach The quantitative study design leverages two separate USA data sources to analyze the gender gap in quits over time. Two separate cohorts confirm the study's results in Logit, ordinary least squares (OLS) and fixed effects estimations, using the Current Population Survey (CPS) and the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY). Findings After controlling for demographic and job characteristics, individual and geographic fixed effects and local unemployment rates, the study finds that the gender gap in voluntary turnover has declined over time and that parenthood's effect on quit behavior has converged between genders. Originality/value Women earn less than men. One common explanation is women's propensity to interrupt their careers, often voluntarily, more so than men. Yet, the determinants and trends of this gender gap in quit behavior has not been given much attention in the literature, including the role of parenthood.
自愿离职的性别差异
本研究的目的是衡量戒烟行为的性别差异,考虑它是否随着时间的推移而改变,并确定父母身份是否会影响戒烟决定的性别差异。设计/方法/方法定量研究的设计利用两个独立的美国数据来源来分析随着时间的推移,辞职的性别差异。使用当前人口调查(CPS)和全国青年纵向调查(NLSY),两个独立的队列用Logit、普通最小二乘(OLS)和固定效应估计证实了研究结果。在控制了人口统计学和职业特征、个人和地理固定效应以及当地失业率后,研究发现自愿离职的性别差距随着时间的推移而缩小,父母身份对辞职行为的影响在性别之间趋于一致。女性挣得比男性少。一个常见的解释是,女性比男性更倾向于中断自己的职业生涯,通常是自愿的。然而,戒烟行为中这种性别差异的决定因素和趋势在文献中并没有得到太多的关注,包括父母的作用。
