An empirical study of the ranking of wages within the United States industries was conducted within the framework of rank-order comparisons. The objectives in this dissertation were twofold: (1) to study the interindustry wage structure between two different years at quarter century and decade time intervals and (2) to explain the stability of that interindustry wage structure by examining the most important factors affecting wages. / The dissertation evolved from an examination of Donald Cullen's study of interindustry wage structure. Cullen's study used the Spearman rank-order methodology to rank industries according to wages and his study indicated that wage structure was very stable. The research of interindustry wage structure was discontinued in the 1950's; therefore, this dissertation was designed to update that research. / The procedure for studying the interindustry wage structure was to classify the industries in several different ways and to use wages in weekly and hourly units of measurement. These several classifications and different units of measurement for wages confirmed Cullen's conclusion that interindustry wage structure has remained very stable for any method of comparison. / Several variables explain the stability of the interindustry wage structure. Sex, plant size, location, and unionism were significant variables throughout the empirical studies. Productivity and education were countercyclically significant. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 43-08, Section: A, page: 2724. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1982.
