        内容摘要:This lecture sets out a model of human capital investment and activity choice to explain facts describing gender differentials in the levels and returns to human capital investments and occupational choice around the world and in China. These facts include the higher return to and level of schooling, the small effect of healthiness on wages, the large effect of healthiness on schooling for women relative to men, and the higher participation in skill-intensive occupations by women relative to men. The model incorporates gender differences in the level and responsiveness of brawn to nutrition in a setting in which activities reward skill and brawn differentially. Evidence from rural Bangladesh and surveys of adult and child twins in China provides support for the model and the importance of the distribution of brawn. The data from China additionally are used to show that levels of economic development affect both the occupational division of labor by gender and the differential gender effects of nutrition on schooling investment.
