Racial Differences in Hours Worked in the Market: A Preliminary Report,

Abstract

Racial differences in the labor market have been the concern of numerous economic studies in recent years. Invariably, the studies show racial differences to persist even after standardization of the population. It is the intent of this paper to continue the investigation of labor supply differences. Since most households are headed by married couples, the decisions to supply male and female labor are made simultaneously. Whether differences in household market opportunities explain all the differences in market activity or only a portion is examined.
