我们记录了一项关于美国高技能男性和女性劳动力市场结果变化的新发现。自1980年以来，以受过大学教育的男性为条件，从事认知型/高薪职业的可能性有所下降。这与受过大学教育的女性的经历形成了鲜明对比：尽管受过教育的女性的供应量比男性增加得多，但她们在这些职业中工作的可能性有所上升。我们表明，能够使这些发现合理化的一个关键渠道是，与其他职业相比，认知/高薪职业对面向女性的技能的需求增加得更多。利用职业层面的数据，我们发现有证据表明，对女性技能需求的相对增加是由于社交技能在此类职业中的重要性日益增加。来自男性和女性工资的证据也表明，对社交技能的需求有所增加。最后，我们记录了这些模式在该时期的早期和后期是如何变化的。
We document a new finding regarding changes in labor market outcomes for high-skilled men and women in the US. Since 1980, conditional on being a college-educated man, the probability of working in a cognitive/high-wage occupation has fallen. This contrasts starkly with the experience for college-educated women: their probability of working in these occupations rose, despite a much larger increase in the supply of educated women relative to men. We show that one key channel capable of rationalizing these findings is a greater increase in the demand for female-oriented skills in cognitive/high-wage occupations relative to other occupations. Using occupation-level data, we find evidence that this relative increase in the demand for female skills is due to an increasing importance of social skills within such occupations. Evidence from both male and female wages is also indicative of an increase in the demand for social skills. Finally, we document how these patterns change across the early and latter portions of the period.
