应届本专科毕业生起薪的院校差异研究——基于分层线性模型的分析

Institutional Variation in College Graduates' Initial Salary in China: An HLM Analysis

本研究基于麦可思研究院2010年中国大学生就业状况调查,采用两水平线性模型探讨院校特征影响我国应届本专科毕业生起薪的两种路径:一是直接影响各院校应届本专科毕业生的平均起薪;二是调整不同院校应届本专科毕业生的性别、专业类型、就业状况等对起薪的影响。研究结果表明,在应届毕业生起薪的整体差异中有12%由院校层面的差异造成;院校类型调整性别、专业类型、就业状况对起薪的影响呈现多样化趋势。以上研究发现有助于理清院校因素影响应届本专科毕业生起薪的机制与路径。

Using hierarchical linear model （HLM） to analyze 2011 MYCOS＇s Chinese College GraduatesI Employment Survey, this study explores two completely different paths by which institutional factors affect initial salary of graduates. One is institution＇s direct influence on average starting salary in different institutions, and the other is institution＇s indirect effect through adjusting the marginal effect of individual attributes （gender, major, employment, etc.）. Results show that about 12% of the total difference of individual starting salary can be attributed to institutional factors （college type, selectivity, etc.）, and that college types exert varying effects on marginal impacts of individual attributes. The conclusions specify mechanisms through which institutions influence graduate＇s starting salary.
