中文摘要
本文分析了亚马逊土耳其机器人（Amazon Mechanical Turk，一个热门的在线劳动力平台）上工作模式和工资的性别差异。利用200万项任务的信息，我们发现在任务选择和工作经验方面均不存在性别差异。尽管如此，女性的平均小时收入比男性低20%。工作模式上的性别差异是造成这一工资差距的重要驱动因素。女性更有可能中断其在平台上的工作时间，从而影响了任务完成速度。一项后续调查显示，工作模式和时薪上的性别差异集中在有子女的劳动者中。
Abstract
Abstract This paper analyzes gender differences in working patterns and wages on Amazon Mechanical Turk, a popular online labor platform. Using information on 2 million tasks, we find no gender differences in task selection nor experience. Nonetheless, women earn 20% less per hour on average. Gender differences in working patterns are a significant driver of this wage gap. Women are more likely to interrupt their working time on the platform with consequences for their task completion speed. A follow-up survey shows that the gender differences in working patterns and hourly wages are concentrated among workers with children.
