经济合作与发展组织发展中心的性别、机构和发展数据库（GID-DB）是一个新的跨国研究工具，具有全面的性别平等措施。它改进了现有的资料来源，因为它是唯一一个系统地纳入社会规范、传统和家庭法指标的性别数据库。因此，性别发展数据库允许分析将文化习俗与性别平等、人类发展和经济增长联系起来的假设。对数据进行的跨国比较表明，社会制度中的不平等在女性识字率低的国家尤为明显，但与人均国内生产总值的相关性较低。同样，我们的计量经济学分析表明，经合组织发展中心的性别不平等与妇女的劳动力参与率之间存在明显的负相关关系。本文所表达的观点是作者的个人观点 * 本文所表达的观点是作者的个人观点
The Development Centre of the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development's Gender, Institutions and Development Data Base (GID‐DB) is a new cross‐country research tool with comprehensive measures of gender equality. It improves upon existing sources because it is the only data base on gender that systematically incorporates indicators of social norms, traditions and family law. The GID‐DB thereby permits analysis of hypotheses that link cultural practices to gender equality, human development and economic growth. A cross‐country comparison of the data indicates that inequalities in social institutions are particularly pronounced in countries with low female literacy rates, but correlate less strongly with Gross Domestic Product per capita. Similarly, our econometric analysis suggests a clearly negative correlation between gender inequality of the OECD Development Center and women's labor‐force participation.*The views expressed in this article are the personal opinions of the authors *The views expressed in this article are the personal opinions of the authors
