摘要：Despite the unparalleled demand for information technology workers during the latter part of the last century, male professionals in this sector are found to have received higher salaries, bonuses, and raises than their female counterparts. This study examines the effect of gender on the salary earnings of men and women in the information technology sector for the period 1991 through 2001. Specifically, this study identifies the type of jobs contributing to the phenomenon, the magnitude of the differences, and trends, if any. The findings reported should be of interest to equity experts, federal and state policy makers, gender issues researchers, human resource managers, information technology professionals, and labor attorneys. Educators, placement counselors, and students selecting a program of study or entering the workforce will also find this study valuable.
