摘要：We study gender discrimination in an online health care market. Statistical discrimination implies that the impact of gender on prices should decline, and the impact of reviews increases, as reviews accumulate. However, in our context this implication does not hold, because doctors choose how strongly to signal gender. We develop a new test for the implications of statistical discrimination based on this choice. We find evidence consistent with statistical discrimination against female doctors in male-dominated fields, and vice versa. For example, female doctors mask gender more strongly initially in male-dominated fields, and the gender gap in signaling declines as reviews accumulate.
