This paper examines the relative performance and access to mounts of female jockeys in American horseracing, the only major professional sport where female and male athletes directly compete on a regular basis. We modeled the determinants of the probability for a jockey finishing a race “in-the-money”—placing first, second, or third, and the determinants for receiving mounts. Among other findings, the results indicated that the probability for female jockeys finishing a race in the money was not significantly different from male jockeys, ceteris paribus, yet female jockeys continue to receive fewer mounts after controlling for other relevant, observable factors.

金钱中:纯种赛马场上的性别和赛马会成功

本文研究了美国赛马中女骑师的相对表现和使用方式,这是唯一一项男女定期直接竞争的主要职业运动。我们对骑师“平价”完成比赛的概率的决定因素进行了建模(放置第一,第二或第三名),以及接受坐骑的决定因素。在其他发现中,结果表明,女骑师完成金钱竞赛的可能性与男骑师ceteris paribus并没有显着差异,但是在控制了其他相关的可观察因素后,女骑师的坐骑次数继续减少。
