This project uses time series analysis on a national sample of employed adults to assess differing explanations for the increasing inequality of incomes. Human capital and status attainment explanations focus on characteristics of individuals such as their education. This project compares those perspec- tives to effects produced by changes in the structure of jobs (e.g., movement towards a U.S. service economy, and movement of manufacturing to other countries) and wages (e.g., rapid creation of low-wage jobs). PI anticipates finding important, perhaps primary, effects of these structural changes. The project permits comparing predictions of all three perspectives. Out- comes of the research will contribute to sociological and econo- mic analysis of changes in income distribution. Applications of the information would include design of intervention programs either at the individual (e.g., training programs) or the struc- tural (e.g., international trade laws) levels. //

该项目使用对成年人的全国样本进行时间序列分析，以评估收入不平等增加的不同解释。 人力资本和地位成就的解释集中在个人教育等个人的特征上。 该项目将这些观点与工作结构的变化（例如，向美国服务经济发展，制造业向其他国家的发展）和工资（例如，快速创造低薪工作）所产生的效果进行了比较。 PI预计发现这些结构变化的重要影响，也许是主要的影响。 该项目允许比较所有三个观点的预测。 研究的范围将有助于社会学和经济分析收入分配变化。 信息的应用将包括在个人（例如培训计划）或结构（例如国际贸易法）水平的干预计划的设计。 //
