Notes: Panel A displays the relationship between gender gaps in total earnings among the 16-64 year olds <strong>and</strong> PPPadjusted<br />
real GDP per capita for our 248 country-years. Observations are divided in 20 bins of GDP per capita, with<br />
similar number of observations per bin. We report the average gender gap in each bin controlling for country fixed<br />
effects, along with the robust 95% confidence interval, following the methodology described in section 2.2. Panel B<br />
displays the evolution over time of gender gaps in total earnings among the 16-64 year olds in our balanced panel of 11<br />
high income countries. See text for details.<br />
