这篇文章研究了参加更多的高中数学和科学课程对工资的影响，进入技术工作或传统工作的可能性，以及选择技术学院专业或传统专业的可能性。两组数据的结果显示，对于女大学毕业生来说，学习更多的高中数学会增加工资，并增加进入技术和非传统领域的可能性。对其他工人来说，学习更多的高中数学并没有明显的影响，而高中科学课程对这些结果几乎没有影响。
This article examines the effects of taking more high-school math and science classes on wages, the likelihood of entering a technical job or a job traditional for one's sex, and the likelihood of choosing a technical college major or a major traditional for one's sex. Results from two data sets show that taking more high-school math increases wages and increases the likelihood of entering technical and nontraditional fields for female college graduates. No significant impact from taking more high school math is consistently observed for other workers, and high-school science courses have little effect on these outcomes.
