1991年的英国家庭小组调查被用来检查的程度，并返回到英国的再教育。大约11%的工人受过高等教育，另有9%的人没有受过足够的教育。结果表明，女性员工的配置效率高于男性员工的配置效率。工作经验越多，被降级的可能性越小，但任期越长，被降级的可能性越大。受教育程度过高的工人收入较低，而受教育程度较低的工人收入高于分配正确的工人。生产率完全体现的假设和生产率完全由工作决定的假设都被数据所否定。人们发现，有大量的工资收益可从更有效的分配技能的工作。
The 1991 wave of the British Household Panel Survey is used to examine the extent of, and the returns to overeducation in the UK. About 11% of the workers are overeducated, while another 9% are undereducated for their job. The results show that the allocation of female workers is more efficient than the allocation of males. The probability of being overeducated decreases with work experience, but increases with tenure. Overeducated workers earn less, while undereducated workers earn more than correctly allocated workers. Both the hypothesis that productivity is fully embodied and the hypothesis that productivity is completely job determined are rejected by the data. It is found that there are substantial wage gains obtainable from a more efficient allocation of skills over jobs.
