Abstract

Many studies find that public sector employees are less discriminatory than private sector. One possible explanation for these differences is that people with public service training are less discriminatory. Using a laboratory experiment we compare how undergraduate and graduate students from a large southwestern university rate unique randomized clerical resumes by the race of the applicant. We find that students with public sector training at the undergraduate or graduate level tend to favor resumes with distinctively Black names, while non-government students slightly favor resumes with non-Black names. On average, students with public sector training or degrees rate resumes with Black names between 6% and 12% higher than do students with business or other training. There is no difference among those with and without public sector training in the time spent on resumes with distinctively Black names compared to those without.

未来的公务员是否有更多的反歧视行为?

摘要

许多研究发现,公共部门雇员比私营部门雇员受到的歧视更少。对这些差异的一种可能解释是,接受过公共服务培训的人较少受到歧视。通过实验室实验,我们比较了西南一所大型大学的本科生和研究生如何根据申请人的种族对独特的随机文书简历进行评分。我们发现,在本科或研究生阶段接受过公共部门培训的学生倾向于喜欢有明显黑人名字的简历,而非政府学生则略微喜欢有非黑人名字的简历。平均而言,接受过公共部门培训或学位的学生使用黑人名字的简历比例比接受过商业或其他培训的学生高 6% 至 12%。
