| Abstract: | An experimental simulation was conducted to examine potential differences in sensitivity to forces to supply and demand among male and female sex-typed jobs. Respondents faced with a labor shortage favored raising salaries for male sex-typed jobs, but favored alternatives to salary increases for female sex-typed jobs at entry and middle levels. Findings are discussed in terms of occupational sex stereotypes and differing perceptions regarding the urgency and difficulty of filling vacancies in male and female positions.Portions of this study were presented at the National Academy of Management Meetings, Chicago, 1986. |
