What is Neal and Johnson (1996) about?

The paper examines the black-white wage gap, attributing much of it to differences in premarket skills rather than current labor market discrimination. Using the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) as a measure of skill, the authors find that this score explains the entirety of the wage gap for young women and a significant portion for young men. The study suggests that addressing the obstacles faced by black children in acquiring skills should be a focus for future research and public policy.
