本文运用博弈论的双边匹配模型和模拟矩估计方法，研究影响小学教师初任匹配的因素。我们发现，雇主表现出对教师的偏好具有较强的学术成就（例如，参加了一个更有选择性的大学）和教师住在更接近学校。教师们倾向于选择地理位置较近、位于郊区、贫困学生比例较低的学校，对白色教师来说，少数民族学生比例较低的学校。这些结果似乎是可以预测的，但与先前的研究结果相矛盾，估计教师劳动力市场的享乐工资方程。
This article uses a game-theoretic, two-sided matching model and method of simulated moments estimation to study factors affecting the match of elementary teachers to their first jobs. We find that employers demonstrate preferences for teachers having stronger academic achievement (e.g., attended a more selective college) and for teachers living in closer proximity to the school. Teachers show preferences for schools that are closer geographically, are suburban, have a smaller proportion of students in poverty, and, for white teachers, have a smaller proportion of minority students. These results appear predictable but contradict findings from prior research estimating hedonic wage equations for teacher labor markets.
