Abstract

This paper found that there are under-education, educational adaptation and over-education in both the low-income labor force and the middle-and high-income labor force. The rate of return on education of low-income labor force is 17.1%, and that of middle-and high-income labor force is 42.2%. In the low-income labor force, the over-educated are subject to significant wage penalties, and their logarithmic wages fall by an average of 0.199 compared with the educational adaptors. Those with under-education received a significant wage premium, and their logarithmic wage income increased by an average of 0.125 compared with the educational adaptors.
