dc.description.abstractIn this paper we investigate the connection between education and wage inequality in nine European countries. We exploit the quantile regression technique to calculate returns to lower secondary, upper secondary and tertiary education at different points of the wage distribution. Using data from the last few decades, we describe changes in the conditional wage distribution of the surveyed countries. We find that in most European countries the amount of conditional wage dispersion within education groups is substantially higher and has grown faster among college-edu cated workers than among less educated workerspt_PT
dc.description.abstractEn este artículo analizamos la conexión entre educación y desigualdad salarial en nueve países Europeos. Empleamos la técnica de la regresión quintílica para calcular, en diferentes puntos de la distribución salarial, la rentabilidad del primer y segundo ciclo de la educación secundaria y la rentabilidad de la educación. Utilizando datos de las últimas décadas, describimos cambios en la distribución condicional de los salarios en los diferentes países. Hallamos que en la mayoría de países la dispersión sa larial condicionada dentro de los diferentes grupos educativos es mayor y ha aumentado más entre los trabajadores con educación universitaria que entre los trabajadores con menos estudios.pt_PT
