    日本では，政府の政策によって大学院定員の拡充が行われ，その結果大学院進学者数は過去40年の間に4倍に増加した。大学院教育によって人的資本が蓄積されるのであれば，このような大学院拡充は経済成長にプラスの効果を持つと期待できる。しかし，大学院教育によってどのくらい人的資本は蓄積されるのかを知ることは容易ではない。それを知るためのおそらく最も簡単な方法は，学部卒の労働者と大学院卒の労働者の賃金を比較することであるが，そのような賃金格差には，労働者の「自己選択」によって生じるバイアスが含まれる。そのため，本研究では，自己選択に関係の深い変数を含む，『消費生活に関するパネル調査』『ワーキングパーソン調査』『国際成人力調査』『地域の生活環境と幸福感に関するアンケート』の4つ調査から得られたデータを用いて，大学院賃金プレミアムを推定した。追加で回帰式に含められた変数は，労働者の学部での専攻，卒業した大学の種類（国公立／私立）とランク，認知能力指標，および両親の教育レベルである。分析の結果，これらの要因は，推定された大学院賃金プレミアムのうち，男性で最大34.4％，女性で最大26.2％程度を説明するが，これらの要因を考慮しても大学院賃金プレミアムは正で有意であった。推定された大学院賃金プレミアムは，男性で14.7％～23.7％，女性で13.5％～26.4％ほどであった。

  • Are Social Norms Associated with Married Women’s Labor Force Participation? A Comparison of Japan and the United States Reviewed International journal

    Although the social-economic status of women has improved worldwide, with several factors reducing gender differences in labor participation and income equality, a substantial gender gap persists. The goal of this study is to determine how the gender gap is associated with social norms. Specifically, within the context of gender roles, we examine the social norm that wives should not earn more than their husbands. We estimate a model that explains wives’ labor force participation in terms of the probability of wives earning more than their husbands by applying an estimation procedure that accounts for potential bias arising from self-selection into employment. Since the impact of social norms can vary in different cultural contexts, we compare the estimation results using datasets obtained from surveys conducted in Japan and the US—representing Eastern and Western cultures, respectively. Our results indicate that a 10 percentage point increase in the probability of wives earning more than their husbands is associated with an 8 percentage point decrease in their labor force participation rate in Japan, whereas the probability of wives earning more is not significant when the model is estimated using U.S. data. Thus, wives’ labor force participation decisions can be related to the social norm more closely in Japan than in the US, reflecting the different social status of women in these countries.
