摘要：Competition involves two main dimensions, a rivalry for resources and the ranking of relative performances. T he latter yields a ranking in terms of social statu s. The rivalry of resources resulting from competitive incentive s has been found to negatively affect women's performance relative to that o f men. However, little is known about gender differences in the performance consequences of status ranking. We find that in anticipation of ranking women perform more poorly than men while there is no difference without status ranking . O ur results suggest that increased participation in competitive environments could harm women's labor market success along a different channel .
