Not a subject I'm well informed about, but it occurs to me all those control variables that eat up the effect of gender on wages are good candidates to look at as mediators of an indirect effect of gender. Surely there must be a ton of researchers who have extended beyond regression to propose plausible causal models? (Love the blog!)
