Der Beitrag vergleicht den Effekt der Geschlechterzusammensetzung im Beruf auf die Verdienstunterschiede von Frauen und Männern zwischen Führungspositionen und Nicht-Führungspositionen in der Privatwirtschaft auf der Basis von Daten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP). Anhand gängiger theoretischer Ansätze wird die Hypothese entwickelt, dass in Führungspositionen die Qualifikationsanforderungen und Arbeitsinhalte der (wenigen) Frauenberufe jenen in Männerberufen ähnlicher sind als unter den sonstigen Angestellten. Entsprechend niedriger ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit von Verdienstabschlägen typischer Frauenberufe in Führungspositionen. Die Verdienstschätzungen unter Anwendung linearer Fixed-Effects-Modelle mit Heckman-Korrektur verdeutlichen, dass nur bei weiblichen Nicht-Führungskräften ein Verdienstabschlag für Frauenberufe besteht. Eine Komponentenzerlegung der Verdienstlücke zwischen Frauen und Männern („gender pay gap") mit verschiedenen Dekompositionsverfahren zeigt darüber hinaus, dass die Geschlechtstypik des ausgeübten Berufes für Nicht-Führungskräfte eine bedeutsame Erklärungsgröße für den „gender pay gap" darstellt. Für Führungskräfte sind solche Effekte nicht nachweisbar. This article uses German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) data to compare the effects of occupational sex composition on the gender pay gap for persons in leadership positions and those not in leadership positions in the private sector. Drawing on established theoretical approaches, the hypothesis is advanced that leadership positions in (the relatively small number of) women's occupations and men's occupations are more similar in terms of qualification requirements and job content than other non-leadership white-collar positions. Accordingly, it is hypothesized that the probability of wage penalties in typical women's occupations is lower in leadership positions. Using linear fixed-effects models with Heckman's correction, wage estimates show that pay is lower in women's occupations only for people in non-leadership positions. Furthermore, a decomposition of the gender wage differential reveals that the gender typicality of a given occupation partly explains the gender pay gap in non-leadership positions. For people in leadership positions, no such effect is detected. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Die aktuelle Lebensstilforschung weist in der Frage nach der Prägung und Persistenz von Lebensstilen im Lebenslauf ein bedeutsames Defizit auf. So ist unklar, ob Lebensstile primär durch Kohorten- oder Lebenszykluseffekte determiniert werden, sich also nach ihrer Ausbildung verfestigen oder aber mit zunehmendem Alter Wandlungsprozessen unterliegen. Ausgehend von Bourdieus Konzept des Habitus und handlungstheoretischen Überlegungen zur Funktion von Lebensstilen wird von einer Prägung des Lebensstils durch die Kohortenzugehörigkeit ausgegangen und diese Hypothese auf der Basis der Daten des Sozio-Ökonomischen Panels (SOEP) für den Zeitraum von 1990 bis 2008 geprüft. Die Ergebnisse deuten zwar darauf hin, dass bestimmte lebenszyklisch relevante Ereignisse die Stabilität von Lebensstilen beeinträchtigen; insgesamt aber zeigen sich deutliche kohortenspezifische Differenzen in den Freizeitmustern, die im Lebensverlauf stabil bleiben. Summary: Current life style research has not answered the question of the extent to which life styles are structured and persistent throughout a person's lifetime. It is unclear whether life styles are determined primarily by cohort or life cycle effects. Are they consolidated after their establishment in early years or do they change with age? Drawing on Bourdieu's concept of habitus and on action-theoretical considerations of the function of life styles for the individual, the basic assumption employed in this paper is that life styles are determined by birth, that is, cohort effects, and are persistent over the course of a person's life. This hypothesis is analyzed using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) for the period from 1990 to 2008. Results indicate that certain life-cycle effects undermine the stability of life styles. However, clear differences specific to birth cohorts appear in leisure-time patterns which remain stable throughout life [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In dieser Studie gehen wir der Frage nach, welche Faktoren die einkommensbedingten Unterschiede in der Mortalität erklären können. Auf der Basis des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) werden ereignisanalytische Modelle der Mortalität ab dem Alter 65 geschätzt, die Auskunft über den Mediatoreffekt von acht Faktorenbündeln geben. Als Mediatoren zwischen Einkommen zum Alter 65 und Mortalität werden Bildung, Demographie, soziale Herkunft, berufliche Belastung, subjektive Bewertung der ökonomischen Situation, soziale Aktivitäten und Netzwerke, Sport sowie der Gesundheitszustand herangezogen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Berücksichtigung von Sport, Bildung, sozialen Netzwerken und Gesundheit den Zusammenhang zwischen Einkommen und Mortalität bei Männern reduzieren. Bei Frauen haben soziale Netzwerke die entscheidende Bedeutung für einkommensbedingte Unterschiede der Mortalität. In this study the relative contribution of several factors to the explanation of income related life expectancy at the age of 65 in Germany are assessed. Based on data from the Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) this article estimates survival analytic models which identify the mediator effect of eight distinct groups of explanatory factors. As possible mediators the following are considered education, demography, social background, occupational strain, subjective evaluation of the economic situation, social activities and networks, sports, and health at age 65. The results show that for men, sports, education, social networks, and health status reduce the association between income and life expectancy considerably. For women, in addition to sports and health, social activities and networks are strongly associated with social differences in mortality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
