This paper seeks to estimate the influence of an unstable work history on wages, the value of alternative forms of post-school experience for whites and blacks, and to isolate important differences in the wage structure for each race which are the source of net racial wage differentials. The analysis indicates that the single most important source of racial hourly wage differentials is the lower level of and return to black schooling investments. The differences in returns among the older cohort are partially attributable to the fact that only whites experience occupational advancement as a part of the return to their investments. |
