This study will assess and investigate the determinants of 1970- 1990 trends in occupational sex and race segregation, and trends in the sex and race composition of specific occupations. The investigators have already created occupational-level data files aggregated from individual-level 1970 and 1980 census microdata. This project will create a similar file for 1990 that will permit three-wave pooled cross-sectional time-series analysis. The unit of analysis is the detailed occupation. The dependent variables are changing proportions of various race-sex groups (e.g. black women) across the more than 500 detailed occupations. The independent variables measure occupational growth, attractiveness, white male labor supply, the ability of their customary workers to exclude outsiders, their economic pressures to lower costs, economic advantages to hiring nontraditional workers, and vulnerability to legal sanctions. The research will contribute to several fields of sociology, including occupations, stratification, mobility, gender and race relations. In so doing, it will strengthen the knowledge base for policy decisions concerning equal employment regulations and concerning the diversity of the future American labor force.

这项研究将评估和调查1970- 1990年职业性别和种族隔离趋势的决定因素，以及特定职业的性别和种族构成趋势。调查人员已经根据1970年和1980年人口普查的个人微数据，创建了职业级别的数据文件。这个项目将为1990年创建一个类似的文件，允许对三波汇集的横截面时间序列进行分析。分析的单位是详细的职业。因变量是在500多个详细职业中不同种族性别群体（例如黑人妇女）的比例变化。这些自变量衡量的是职业增长、吸引力、白人男性劳动力供应、他们的传统工人排斥外来者的能力、他们降低成本的经济压力、雇佣非传统工人的经济优势、以及法律制裁的脆弱性。这项研究将有助于社会学的几个领域，包括职业、分层、流动性、性别和种族关系。这样做，它将加强关于平等就业条例和关于未来美国劳动力多样性的政策决定的知识库。
