DOMINGUEZ VILLALOBOS, Lilia; BROWN GROSSMAN, Flor  e  NAVA BOLANOS, Isalia. Educated Mexican migrants in the United States: Analysis of gender inequalities. Estud. front [online]. 2019, vol.20, e035.  Epub 15-Nov-2019. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.1914035.

This work comparatively analyses the determinants of incorporation into the American labor market by qualification level of the occupation of Mexican educated female and male migrants. To meet the objective, we estimate two multinomial econometric models that examine the odds of not being filled or used in positions of different level of qualification. Based on these results, scenarios are built. In the first that combines academic degree with the presence of children, the high probability for the female population of being outside the workforce was blunt, with the exception of having a doctorate. The second scenario, which relates to immigration conditions, schooling and English proficiency, illustrates vulnerability as immigrants, when optimal conditions are not present, but in this case women have greater odds to be left out of the workforce.

Palavras-chave : qualified Mexican migration; gender; occupation; multinomial models; United States.
