Economics (general)RCT
Endogenous Stratification Equity Gains
For the lowest-predicted-earnings stratum, the job application workshop increased 4-year earnings by 50% over the control mean (p = 0.0696 for equality with the high-predicted-earnings group). This intervention reduced the earnings gap between high- and low-predicted earners from 142% down to 54%.
Economics (general)RCT
Statistical Discrimination Mitigation
Signaling workshop gains were heavily concentrated among disadvantaged workers lacking tertiary education (40% wage increase over control) and those without prior permanent work experience [14, 27]. The intervention fully eliminated the 34% baseline earnings gap between experienced and inexperienced workers [9, 14, 28].
