핵심자기평가와 초기노동시장의 성별 임금격차 = Core Self-Evaluation and Gender Wage Gap Among Young Workers

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 노동시장 성과의 결정 요인으로 최근 주목받고 있는 ‘핵심자기평가(core self-evaluation:CSE)’가 초기노동시장에서의 성별 임금격차를 얼마나 설명하는지 분석한다. 특히 핵심자기평가의 구성 요인 중 자기효능감과 신경증(또는 정서적 안정성)에 초점을 맞춰 분석한다. 이를 위해 한국교육고용패널을 이용하여 회귀분석, Oaxaca-Blinder 분해 및 반사실적 분포를 이용한 임금분포 분해를 실시하였다. 회귀분석 결과, 자기효능감과 정서적 안정성, 외향성은 임금과 양의 관계를 보였다. 특히 자기효능감과 정서적 안정성은 여성에 비해 남성이 더 높았으며, 이는 성별 임금격차의 4.5%(각각 2.6%, 1.9%)를 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자기평가 지표의 설명력은 임금 분위에 따른 차이가 없었다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The core self-evaluation(CSE) has recently drawn attention as an important determinant of labor market performance. We analyze how much the CSE explains the gender wage gap during the early phases of the labor market. We focus on self-efficacy and neuroticism among the four indicators of the CSE. We conduct Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition and counterfactual quantile regression decomposition using Korean Education & Employment Panel. We find self-efficacy and emotional stability are positively correlated with wage. We also find men have higher self-efficacy and emotional stability than women, which explains in total 4.5% of the gender wage gap (2.6% and 1.9%, respectively). In addition, the counterfactual decomposition results reveal that the CSE explains wage gaps constantly across the wage distribution.
