Labour & employmentGender-Differentiated Selection and Outside OptionsWomen accept lower reservation rates (WTA is 2.3 to 3.0 MWK lower for women, p < 0.01), sort 0.76 more units per day, and make 0.16 fewer errors than men. The negative selection effect is driven exclusively by men, where a 10 MWK higher minimum WTA is associated with sorting 0.20 to 0.50 fewer units per day (p < 0.05); women display no significant selection relationship.RCTLabour & employmentGender-Invariant Labor Supply Response to Unearned IncomeThe gender interaction term coefficient with yearly prize is +0.002 (standard error 0.057), demonstrating no statistically significant difference in marginal propensity to earn between men (baseline MPE of -0.124) and women (MPE of -0.122).Observational Study
