First page 14 th edition Gwartney-Stroup Sobel-Macpherson Questions for Thought: 1. During the last three decades, the labor force participation rate of married females has almost doubled. What impact has this influx of married workers into the labor force had on: a. the avg years of work experience of women relative to men, b. the mean hours of work time of women relative to men, and, c. the female/male earnings ratio? 2. Physical strength is important on some jobs. Do you think differences in physical strength between men and women contribute to earnings differences according to gender?
