我们开发了一个就业市场信号模型，其中信号传递两条信息。该模型用于研究反信号（能力非单调信号）和 GED 考试。该模型的结果是，在需要与学校教育过程中使用的技能组合不同的技能组合的工作中，反信号更有可能发生。该模型还产生了与 GED 证据一致的可测试含义：(i) 它表明了高认知技能和低非认知技能，(ii) 它不影响工资。
We develop a job-market signalling model where signals convey two pieces of information. This model is employed to study countersignalling (signals nonmonotonic in ability) and the GED exam. A result of the model is that countersignalling is more likely to occur in jobs that require a combination of skills that differs from the combination used in the schooling process. The model also produces testable implications consistent with evidence on the GED: (i) it signals both high cognitive and low noncognitive skills and (ii) it does not affect wages.
