| contents | The return-on-education gap between hispanics and non-hispanic whites Gabriela Sánchez-Soto Andrea Bautista-León Joachim Singelmann Demografía United States immigrant workers Returns on education earnings differentials This paper analyzes differences in the return on education between non-Hispanic whites and four groups of Hispanics: Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Cubans, and other Latin Americans. For Mexicans, Cubans, and other Latin Americans, we also distinguish between native-born in the U.S. and foreign-born immigrants. We use data from the American Community Survey 2008-2013 to estimate the differences in the return on education by comparing income relative to educational attainment across ethnic and immigrant groups. The analyses account for age, education, English skills, citizenship status, union status, year, metro area residence, and region of residence, as well as time spent in the U.S. for the foreign-born. We find that the returns on schooling are lower for Hispanics relative to NH whites, but that there is also a gap in earnings between U.S. and foreign-born Hispanics. The loss of wages experienced by Hispanic immigrants is greater at higher levels of education, and for women. 2018 artículo científico 1405-7425 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=11258314010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11258314010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11258314010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11258314010/11258314010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11258314010/movil https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2018.98.42 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=112 Papeles de Población application/pdf Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México Papeles de Población (México) Num.98 Vol.24 |
