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