The steep rise of top wages is acknowledged as one of the main drivers of the rise in earnings inequality between workers in most postindustrial labor markets. Yet its relation to gender stratification, in particular to the stagnation in the gender pay gap, has received very little scholarly attention. Using data from the U.S. Current Population Survey, conducted between 1980 and 2017, we provide evidence of the enormous weight that the dynamic at the top of the earnings distribution exerts on the gender pay gap. We also show how this dynamic inhibits the consequences of the countervailing process of gender vertical desegregation. Although developments in gender inequality and in the rise of top wages have drawn extensive scholarly attention and have even penetrated into the public discourse in recent years, the two dimensions of inequality are often perceived as unrelated to one another. Our findings, then, highlight the connection between different forms of inequality—class inequality and gender inequality—a relation that demands much more attention in the new economy.
在大多数后工业化劳动力市场,最高工资的急剧上涨被认为是工人之间收入不平等加剧的主要驱动因素之一。然而,它与性别分层的关系,特别是与性别工资差距停滞不前的关系,却很少得到学术界的注意。利用1980年至2017年间进行的美国当前人口调查(U.S. Current Population Survey)的数据,我们提供了证据,证明收入分配顶层的动态对性别收入差距施加了巨大的影响。我们还展示了这种动态如何抑制性别垂直废除种族隔离的抵消过程的后果。尽管性别不平等的发展和最高工资的上涨引起了广泛的学术关注,甚至近年来进入了公共话语,但不平等的两个方面往往被认为是彼此无关的。因此,我们的研究结果强调了不同形式的不平等之间的联系——阶级不平等和性别不平等——这种关系在新经济中需要得到更多的关注。

: In many Western societies, the current “native” majority will become a numerical minority sometime within the next century. How does prospective demographic change affect existing group boundaries? An influential recent article by Abascal (2020) showed that white Americans under demographic threat reacted with boundary contraction—that is, they were less likely to classify ambiguously white people as “white.” The present study examines the generalizability of these findings beyond the American context. Specifically, we test whether informing Germans about the projected decline of the “native” population without migration background affects the classification of phenotypically ambiguous individuals. Our results show that information about demographic change neither affects the definition of group boundaries nor generates negative feelings toward minority outgroups. These findings point to the relevance of contextual differences in shaping the conditions under which demographic change triggers group threat and boundary shifts.
在许多西方社会,目前的“本地”多数人在下个世纪的某个时候将变成数量上的少数人。预期的人口变化如何影响现有的群体边界?Abascal(2020)最近发表的一篇有影响力的文章显示,在人口威胁下,美国白人的反应是边界收缩——也就是说,他们不太可能将模棱两可的白人归类为“白人”。本研究考察了这些发现在美国之外的普遍性。具体来说,我们测试了告知德国人没有移民背景的“本地”人口的预计下降是否会影响表型模糊个体的分类。我们的研究结果表明,有关人口变化的信息既不会影响群体边界的定义,也不会产生对少数群体的负面情绪。这些发现指出,背景差异在形成人口变化触发群体威胁和边界转移的条件方面具有相关性。

Societal beliefs about women’s work have long been a metric for gender equality, with recent scholarship focusing on trends in these attitudes to assess the progress (or stalling) of the gender revolution. Moving beyond widely critiqued gender attitude questions thought to be the only available items for measuring change over time, this article considers women’s and men’s views toward their own work over the last half century. Traditional gender scripts frame women’s labor force participation as less than ideal, something to do if financially necessary but not because work is intrinsically rewarding. Historically, this gender frame was reinforced by religion. We examine the gender gap in working for its own sake over time and whether and how religious involvement moderates these trends. Overall, the gender gap has declined to the point where it is now virtually nonexistent. However, religious involvement acts as a countervailing influence, bolstering the gap such that frequently attending men and women have not yet converged in their desire to work. Although the most religious Americans have not yet converged, men’s dropping desire to work and women’s rising desire to work are society-wide trends, and even the most religious Americans could be expected to converge at some point in the future. Traditionalist institutions contribute to unevenness in the gender revolution, but preferences cannot explain the persistent society-wide precarity of women’s work: Women now prefer to work for work’s sake at the same rate men do.
长期以来,社会对女性工作的看法一直是衡量性别平等的一个指标,最近的学术研究关注这些态度的趋势,以评估性别革命的进展(或停滞)。除了被广泛批评的性别态度问题之外,这篇文章还考虑了过去半个世纪以来女性和男性对自己工作的看法。传统的性别脚本将女性的劳动参与率定义为不太理想的,如果经济上有必要,那么就可以这样做,而不是因为工作本身就有回报。从历史上看,宗教强化了这种性别框架。我们研究了长期以来为工作而工作的性别差异,以及宗教参与是否以及如何缓和了这些趋势。总的来说,性别差距已经缩小到现在几乎不存在的程度。然而,宗教的参与起到了一种抵消作用,扩大了差距,以至于经常参加的男性和女性在工作的愿望上还没有趋同。尽管最虔诚的美国人尚未趋同,但男性工作欲望的下降和女性工作欲望的上升是全社会的趋势,甚至最虔诚的美国人也有望在未来的某个时候趋同。传统主义制度助长了性别革命中的不平等,但偏好并不能解释女性工作在全社会持续存在的不稳定性:现在女性更愿意为工作而工作,其比例与男性相同。

"Choose the Plan That’s Right for You": Choice Devolution as Class-Biased Institutional Change in U.S. Employer-Sponsored Health Insurance “选择适合你的计划”:选择权力下放作为美国雇主赞助的健康保险中阶级偏见的制度变化

This study examines the distributional consequences of U.S. employers’ efforts to devolve responsibility for managing their employees’ medical insurance risk. The logic of consumer choice has increasingly come to dominate insurance benefit design, requiring that employees learn to be their own actuaries. We ask, to what extent does the individuation of choice (between insurance plans with disparate levels of cost-sharing) alter the social stratification of out-of-pocket (OOP) medical expenditure burdens across socioeconomic status class strata? Our analysis draws on an insurance claims database from a large multi-employer commercial insurer, which includes information on plan offerings and realized OOP expenditure burdens for more than 37 million persons from 2002 to 2012. Consistent with expectations, the results of pooled difference-in-difference event study models reveal that transitions to devolved choice result in modestly greater increases in realized OOP burden among lower socioeconomic status enrollees, compared with the growth among higherstatus enrollees. However, the magnitude of the increase in the between-class expenditure burden disparity is small in substantive terms.
本研究考察了美国雇主努力下放管理雇员医疗保险风险的责任的分配后果。消费者选择的逻辑越来越多地主导了保险福利设计,要求员工学会成为自己的精算师。我们的问题是,在多大程度上,选择的个性化(在不同水平的费用分摊保险计划之间)改变了社会经济地位阶层中自费医疗支出负担的社会分层?我们的分析利用了一家大型多雇主商业保险公司的保险索赔数据库,其中包括2002年至2012年超过3700万人的计划提供和实现的OOP支出负担的信息。与预期一致的是,汇总差异事件研究模型的结果显示,与社会经济地位较高的参保者相比,向权力下放选择的转变导致较低社会经济地位参保者的已实现OOP负担略微增加。然而,阶层间支出负担差距的增加幅度在实质上是很小的。

Education and Social Fluidity: A Reweighting Approach 教育和社会流动性:一种重新加权的方法

Although sociologists have devoted considerable attention to studying the role of education in intergenerational social class mobility using log-linear models for contingency tables, findings in this literature are not free from rescaling or non-collapsibility bias caused by adjusting for education in these models. Drawing on the methodological literature on inverse probability reweighting, I present a straightforward standardization approach free from this bias. The approach reweighs in an initial step the mobility table cell frequencies to create a pseudo-population in which social class origins and education are independent of each other, after which one can apply any loglinear model to the reweighted mobility table. In contrast to the Karlson-Holm-Breen method, the approach yields coefficients that are comparable across different studies because they are unaffected by education’s predictive power of class destinations. Moreover, the approach is easily applied to models for various types of mobility patterns such as those in the core model of fluidity; it yields a single summary measure of overall mediation; and it can incorporate several mediating variables, allowing researchers to control for additional merit proxies such as cognitive skills or potential confounders such as age. I illustrate the utility of the approach in four empirical examples.
尽管社会学家已经投入了相当多的注意力来研究教育在代际社会阶级流动中的作用,使用列联表的对数线性模型,但这些文献的研究结果并没有避免由于在这些模型中调整教育而导致的重标度或非可折叠性偏差。根据关于逆概率重加权的方法学文献,我提出了一种没有这种偏见的直接标准化方法。该方法在初始步骤中重新加权流动性表单元频率,以创建一个伪人口,其中社会阶层起源和教育相互独立,之后可以将任何线性模型应用于重新加权的流动性表。与卡尔森-霍尔姆-布林方法相比,该方法产生的系数在不同的研究中具有可比性,因为它们不受教育对班级目的地的预测能力的影响。此外,该方法很容易应用于各种流动模式的模型,例如流动性核心模型中的模型;它产生了一个单一的综合衡量整体调解;它可以结合几个中介变量,允许研究人员控制额外的优点代理,如认知技能或潜在的混杂因素,如年龄。我用四个实证例子来说明这种方法的效用。

High-cost financial services allow economically insecure families to make ends meet but often contribute to additional financial strain in the long run. This study uses novel data from the Shift Project to describe the link between schedule unpredictability and high-cost debt (i.e., payday loans, pawnshop loans, auto-title loans, overdrafts, and problematic credit card debt) among service workers. First, it compares the relative magnitude of the associations between high-cost debt, schedule unpredictability, and levels of income. Second, it investigates whether income volatility mediates the relationship between schedule unpredictability and high-cost debt. Finally, it describes whether the link between schedule unpredictability and high-cost debt varies by institutional and policy contexts. Results indicate that schedule unpredictability is a substantively meaningful, independent, and understudied dimension of inequality in financial outcomes.
高成本的金融服务使经济上没有保障的家庭能够维持收支平衡,但从长远来看,往往会造成额外的财务压力。本研究使用来自Shift项目的新数据来描述服务工作者中时间表不可预测性与高成本债务(即发薪日贷款、当铺贷款、汽车所有权贷款、透支和有问题的信用卡债务)之间的联系。首先,它比较了高成本债务、时间表不可预测性和收入水平之间关联的相对程度。其次,研究收入波动是否在计划不可预测性与高成本债务之间的关系中起中介作用。最后,它描述了时间表不可预测性和高成本债务之间的联系是否因制度和政策背景而异。结果表明,时间表不可预测性是财务结果不平等的一个重要的、独立的、未被充分研究的维度。

Direct and Indirect Effects of Grandparent Education on Grandchildren’s Cognitive Development: The Role of Parental Cognitive Ability 祖父母教育对孙辈认知发展的直接与间接影响:父母认知能力的作用

The social stratification literature is inconclusive about whether there is a direct effect of grandparent resources on grandchildren's educational outcomes net of parental characteristics. Some of this heterogeneity may be due to differences in omitted variable bias at the parental level. Our article accounts for a more extensive set of parent characteristics and explores the mediating role of parental cognitive ability in more detail. It further tackles methodological challenges (treatmentinduced mediator–outcome confounders, treatment–mediator interaction) in assessing any direct influences of grandparents by using a regression-with-residuals approach. Using the 1970 British Cohort Study, our results show that the direct effect of grandparent education on grandchildren's verbal and numerical ability is small and statistically nonsignificant. Parental cognitive ability alone can account for more than two-thirds (numerical ability) or half (verbal ability) of the overall grandparent effect. These findings stress the importance of cognitive ability for intergenerational social mobility processes.
关于祖父母资源对孙辈的教育结果是否有直接影响,社会分层文献尚无定论。这种异质性的一部分可能是由于在父母水平上被忽略的变量偏倚的差异。我们的文章解释了更广泛的父母特征,并更详细地探讨了父母认知能力的中介作用。它进一步解决了方法学上的挑战(治疗诱导的中介-结果混杂因素,治疗-中介相互作用),通过使用残差回归方法评估祖父母的任何直接影响。使用1970年的英国队列研究,我们的结果表明,祖父母教育对孙辈的语言和数字能力的直接影响很小,统计上不显著。仅父母的认知能力就可以占到整个祖父母效应的三分之二(数字能力)或一半(语言能力)以上。这些发现强调了认知能力在代际社会流动过程中的重要性。

Abductive Logic of Inquiry for Quantitative Research in the Digital Age 数字时代定量研究的推理逻辑
IF 3.4 2区 社会学 Q1 SOCIOLOGY Pub Date : 2021-06-17 DOI: 10.15195/V8.A10
Philipp Brandt, S. Timmermans
We propose an abductive logic of scientific inference for quantitative research. The advent of computational sociology has exposed the limitations of a deductive logic of inquiry for quantitative researchers due to a lack of traditional sociological variables and an abundance of unfamiliar variables and data formats, complicating hypothesis testing. In response, some researchers have embraced inductive inference, but inductive analysis without theoretical guidance risks producing atheoretical findings. An abductive logic of inquiry rests on developing new theoretical insights based on surprising research results in light of existing theories. In computational sociology, such surprising findings can be cultivated by taking advantage of the analytical potential of scaled-up data and developing flexible analytical and visualization procedures. We illustrate these tactics with a surprising finding in a study of the labor supply decisions of New York City yellow cab drivers.
我们提出了一种用于定量研究的科学推理的溯因逻辑。由于缺乏传统的社会学变量和大量不熟悉的变量和数据格式,使假设检验复杂化,计算社会学的出现暴露了定量研究人员的演绎调查逻辑的局限性。作为回应,一些研究人员接受了归纳推理,但没有理论指导的归纳分析有产生理论结果的风险。探究的溯因逻辑依赖于在现有理论的基础上,以惊人的研究结果为基础,发展新的理论见解。在计算社会学中,这种令人惊讶的发现可以通过利用放大数据的分析潜力和开发灵活的分析和可视化程序来培养。我们在对纽约市黄色出租车司机的劳动力供给决策的研究中,用一个令人惊讶的发现来说明这些策略。

The advent of computational sociology has exposed the limitations of a deductive logic of inquiry for quantitative researchers due to a lack of traditional sociological variables and an abundance of unfamiliar variables and data formats, complicating hypothesis testing. In response, some researchers have embraced inductive inference, but inductive analysis without theoretical guidance risks producing atheoretical findings. An abductive logic of inquiry rests on developing new theoretical insights based on surprising research results in light of existing theories. In computational sociology, such surprising findings can be cultivated by taking advantage of the analytical potential of scaled-up data and developing flexible analytical and visualization procedures. We illustrate these tactics with a surprising finding in a study of the labor supply decisions of New York City yellow cab drivers.","PeriodicalId":22029,"journal":{"name":"Sociological Science","volume":"8 1","pages":"191-210"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2021-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48218707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Role-taking is the process of mentally and affectively placing the self in the position of another, understanding the world from the other’s perspective. Role-taking serves an expressive function within interpersonal interaction, supporting others to pursue instrumental tasks that are recognized, valued, and rewarded. In the present work, we compare role-taking accuracy between white women and black women across status-varying interactional arrangements. Data for this study come from a series of two laboratory experiments. Experiment 1 establishes racial differences in white and black women’s role-taking accuracy, showing that women of color are significantly more attuned to others within social encounters. Experiment 2 implements an intervention to undermine racial disparities in role-taking accuracy, showing that expressive labors equalize when black women are empowered within the social structure. Findings highlight the entwinement of status structures with interpersonal processes while demonstrating the efficacy and value of structural reforms.
角色扮演是在心理上和情感上把自己置于他人的位置,从他人的角度理解世界的过程。角色扮演在人际交往中具有表达功能,支持他人从事被认可、重视和奖励的工具性任务。在本研究中,我们比较了白人女性和黑人女性在不同地位的互动安排中角色扮演的准确性。这项研究的数据来自于一系列的两个实验室实验。实验1建立了白人和黑人女性角色扮演准确性的种族差异,表明有色人种女性在社会交往中明显更能适应他人。实验2通过干预来消除角色扮演准确性方面的种族差异,表明当黑人女性在社会结构中被赋予权力时,表达性劳动是平等的。研究结果强调了地位结构与人际关系过程的纠缠,同时证明了结构改革的有效性和价值。
