The returns to education, and the increasing wage gap between younger and older workers / by C. Kapsalis, R. Morissette and Garnett Picot. : CS11-0019/131E
Two sets of data are employed in this research. We use the Survey of consumer finances (SCF) to examine weekly earnings over the 1981-95 period... We also use the Survey of work history (SWH) of 1981 and the Labour market activity survey (LMAS) of 1988 to examine both weekly earnings and hourly wages over the 1981-1988 period... To keep the comparison tractable, we restrict our attention to two age groups: individuals aged 25-34 and those aged 45-54.--Page 2
