Overeducation and the skills of UK graduates (2007, methodology): “Following Chevalier (2003), we define workers not employed in a graduate job as `apparently’ over-educated if they ranked themselves between five and seven on the qualification match scale (satisfied with the match between education and job) and genuinely over-educated otherwise.”
Competencies for young European higher education graduates: labor market mismatches and their payoffs (2008, background): “The rewards from education are then separated into rewards in the case of a ‘‘proper matching’’ and corrections for under-and over-education (Charlot & Decreuse, 2005; Chevalier, 2003; Groeneveld & Hartog, 2004; Hartog & Oosterbeek, 1988; Verdugo & Verdugo, 1989).”
Job Mismatches and Labour Market Outcomes: Panel Evidence on University Graduates* (2013, unknown): “Chevalier (2003) and Chevalier and Lindley (2009) consider job satisfaction as a possible way of showing the degree of match between workers and jobs.”
Labour Market Mismatch Among UK Graduates: An Analysis Using Reflex Data (2011, background): “…studies on overeducation have suggested that the pay penalty observed in OLS models is upwardly biased as a consequence of either selection bias (Dolton and Silles, 2002) or unobserved heterogeneity, generally attributed to lower ability levels of mismatched workers (Bauer, 2002, Chevalier, 2003).”
Occupation–education mismatch of immigrant workers in Europe: Context and policies (2013, methodology): “ts (Chevalier, 2003; Dumont and Monso, 2007); using occupational tige scores (Chiswick, Lee, & Miller, 2005); workers self-assessment”
An Analysis of Skill Mismatch Using Direct Measures of Skills (2011, methodology): “Chevalier (2003) for example, suggested that increased access to education in the UK has met more low ability students entering the tertiary sector.”
Returns to Overeducation: A Longitudinal Analysis of the U.S. Labor Market. (2010, methodology): “For example, Chevalier (2003) claims that encouraging further investments in education has increased the heterogeneity of ability among graduates by allowing lower-ability students to receive higher levels of education.”
Discriminating between alternative measures of over-education (2006, background): “2 For wages, see, eg, Gottschalk and Hansen ( 2003 ); for satisfaction, see, eg, Chevalier ( 2003 ); for tenure, see, eg, Bowlus ( 1995 ).”
Overeducation among European University Graduates: a comparative analysis of its incidence and the importance of higher education differentiation (2011, background): “Overeducation might conceal the lack of human capital endowments other than formal schooling, such as ability, on-the-job training or experience ( Chevalier 2003 ).”
Education, College Major, and Job Match: Gender Differences in Reasons for Mismatch (2007, background): “The distinctions between the various reasons can be related to differences in apparent and genuine overeducation as defined by Chevalier (2003).”
Immigrant overeducation: Evidence from recent arrivals to Australia (2007, background): “This means lower overall returns to education for the overeducated (Battu, Bel…eld and Sloane 1999, 2000, Dolton and Vignoles 2000, Chevalier 2003, Rubb 2003 and Frenette 2004).”
Overeducation at the Start of the Career: Stepping Stone or Trap? (2013, background): “As already mentioned, since career mobility is less likely for the “apparently overeducated” (Chevalier, 2003), more career mobility may be expected when basing the analysis on the self-assessment method.”
Overeducation in the graduate labour market: A quantile regression approach (2007, background): “…have seen a burgeoning literature attempting to explain the phenomenon whereby workers are located in jobs for which they are overqualified or overeducated (Chevalier, 2003, McGuinness, 2003b, Bauer, 2002, Dolton & Vignoles, 2000, Hartog 2000, Greene, McIntosh & Vignoles, 1999, Groot, 1996, 1993).”
Overqualification, Job Dissatisfaction, and Increasing Dispersion in the Returns to Graduate Education (2010, methodology): “We agree with Chevalier (2003) that it is useful to”
The Determinants of Overeducation: Different Measures, Different Outcomes? (2010, background): “Chevalier (2003) adopts another approach by defining the objectively overeducated who are not satisfied with their jobs as being genuinely overeducated.”
Immigrant over-education: evidence from Denmark (2007, unknown): “19 Based on survey information, Chevalier (2003) and Chevalier and Lindley (2006) distinguish between apparent overeducation and genuine overeducation, by asking respondents to comment on their satisfaction with the match between their education and their job.”
