Polachek, Solomon William. 1985. "Occupation Segregation: A Defense of Human Capital Predictions." Journal of Human Resources 20(3):437-440.

The author wishes to thank Thomas Kniesner and Cathy McHugh for discussion and the Carolina Population Center and NICHD for financial support. He is especially indebted to Arthur Benavie and Barbara Benavie for innovative ideas, to Patricia Brito for providing unpublished data on male and female occupational distributions for 1970 using the 1960 U.S. Census occupational codes, which were used in a longer version of this note [18], and to Paul Jellinek for superb editorial assistance.
