我们进行了一项大规模的实地实验，以衡量澳大利亚的劳动力市场歧视，该国四分之一的人口出生在海外。为了表示种族，我们使用了盎格鲁-撒克逊、土著、意大利、中国和中东的名字。我们比较多个种族群体，而不是像大多数其他研究那样只比较一个少数民族。在所有情况下，我们都申请了入门级工作，并提交了一份简历，表明应聘者曾在澳大利亚读过高中。我们发现回调率存在显著差异：少数族裔候选人需要申请更多工作才能获得相同数量的面试。这些差异在不同种族之间有系统地不同。
We conduct a large-scale field experiment to measure labour market discrimination in Australia, one quarter of whose population was born overseas. To denote ethnicity, we use distinctively Anglo-Saxon, Indigenous, Italian, Chinese and Middle Eastern names. We compare multiple ethnic groups, rather than a single minority as in most other studies. In all cases we applied for entry-level jobs and submitted a CV indicating that the candidate attended high school in Australia. We find significant differences in callback rates: ethnic minority candidates would need to apply for more jobs in order to receive the same number of interviews. These differences vary systematically across ethnic groups.
