按教育确定潜在的工资分布对于研究教育、不平等和不确定性之间的因果关系非常重要。在一个受教育群体中,潜在的工资不平等(即,如果所有工人都接受相同的教育,工资的差异)超过了观察到的统计数据,因为自我选择的教育截断了工资分布。将潜在的工资不平等分解为异质性(对做出教育选择的代理人来说是已知的)和不确定性(对代理人来说是未知的)表明,工资不确定性不一定会随着教育而增加。大学毕业与工资不平等加剧之间的关系是未观察到的异质性,而不是不确定性。
Identification of potential wage distributions by education is important to the study of the causal links between education, inequality, and uncertainty. Potential wage inequality within an educational group (that is, the variance in wages if all workers had the same education) exceeds the observed statistics because self-selected education truncates wage distributions. Decomposing potential wage inequality into heterogeneity (known to the agent making the educational choice) and uncertainty (unknown to the agent) suggests that wage uncertainty does not necessarily rise with education. It is unobserved heterogeneity, not uncertainty, that explains the observed relationship between college graduation and higher wage inequality.
