Examining education and economic disparity between genders - czech republic

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between education and economic disparities in the Czech Republic. In Czech Republic women have achieved educational equality, but they continue to face unequal economic outcomes, particularly in traditionally female-dominated fields that offer lower salaries. This study aims to critically evaluate and expand upon Eagly and Karau's Role Congruity Theory by showing how traditional gender role expectations of women as nurturing and cooperative are embedded in Czech Republic’s educational framework. This research aims to analyze how level of education impacts labor market opportunities for women.
