摘要

我们采用揭示偏好测试来区分工资发布和工资议价。使用华盛顿州双职工的样本，我们估计了工资和离职率对第二份工作工资冲击的敏感性。在工资分配的较低部分，外部选择的改善导致更高的离职率，但不会导致更高的工资，这与工资发布一致。在工资最高的四分位数中，外部选择的改善转化为更高的工资，而不是更高的离职率，这与讨价还价一致。总的来说，讨价还价似乎是工资设定的有限决定因素。

Wage Posting or Wage Bargaining? A Test Using Dual Jobholders

We employ a revealed preference test to distinguish between wage posting and wage bargaining. Using a sample of dual jobholders in Washington State, we estimate the sensitivity of wages and separation rates to wage shocks in a secondary job. In lower parts of the wage distribution, improvements in the outside option lead to higher separations rates but not to higher wages, consistent with wage posting. In the highest wage quartile, improved outside options translate to higher wages but not higher separation rates, consistent with bargaining. In the aggregate, bargaining appears to be a limited determinant of wage setting.
