Abstract |
 The presentation highlights work by Dr. Hilary
M. Lips, professor and chair of psychology and director of the Center for Gender
Studies at Radford University. Using research results from studies of
female and male students' career expectations and attitudes, as well
as current and historical data from
the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics surveys (the
CPS,
ACS,
ATUS),
the General Accounting Office (GAO)
and other sources, Dr. Lips' presentation
emphasizes the challenges, difficulties and controversies in assessing
the gender wage gap within "Human Capital Models". In her presentation
special emphasis is given to the differences and similarities in
students' anticipated work and career attitudes when compared to
statistical studies of employed workers. Of special interest in these
comparisons is the extent to which students' self-evaluations
anticipate, fail to anticipate, and even contradict often assumed
gender differences in work and career "investments" that young
women and men college graduates bring to their careers.
