Gender pre-market (education)

EQAO pass rates(Grade 3)

K12: Issues Boys do worse than girls in Ontario on standardised tests ▫But not true everywhere – math and science scores higher in US (ECLS-K, NELS, eg) Girls do better on school grades than on standardised tests ▫But that gap falls/disappears when control for ‘non-cognitive skills’ like in class behaviour, attitudes, repeated grade; homework hours, middle school grades (Jacob; Cornwell, Mustard, Van Parys)

Educational Attainment NHS data, highest level by age group

Educational Attainment NHS data, highest level by age group

Educational Attainment Overall university enrolments up for women, but not in all fields ▫Math ▫Computer science ▫Economics? Greater field of study segregation than a few decades ago?

Uni - economics faculty

Non-cognitive skills? Non-cognitive skills used to explain ▫Growth in “residual” income inequality ▫Lower returns to GED than high school grad ▫Lower college enrolment rates of low income students / from single parent families ▫Girls’ better performance on school grades conditional on standardised test scores So if women have better non-cognitive skills than men, and if returns to non-cognitive skills have increased ▫‘Unexplained’ gender gap should have decreased??
