Abstract: <\/strong><\/p>\n

“Dans le cadre du projet individuel “Discrimination as an obstacle to social cohesion” du NCCR on the move, cette th\u00e8se porte sur la discrimination des minorit\u00e9s ethniques sur le march\u00e9 du travail en Suisse. \u00c9tant donn\u00e9 que la discrimination n’est plus un ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne ouvert et donc facilement observable, la recherche sur la discrimination, et en particulier sur la discrimination \u00e0 l’embauche, est devenue plus difficile. Afin d’\u00e9tudier et de mesurer l’ampleur de la discrimination dans les d\u00e9cisions d’embauche, les chercheurs ont utilis\u00e9 diverses approches, selon les disciplines, s’appuyant principalement sur des analyses statistiques de donn\u00e9es d’observation, de recherche comportementale, de recherche sur les attitudes et de recherche sur les victimes (Veenman 2010). Si toutes ces approches ont leurs forces et leurs faiblesses, on observe depuis quelques ann\u00e9es une augmentation des exp\u00e9riences sur le terrain et en particulier des tests par correspondance. Depuis la fin des ann\u00e9es 1960, les chercheurs ont eu recours \u00e0 des exp\u00e9riences sur le terrain dans le cadre desquelles deux candidats ayant des qualifications \u00e9changeables qui ne diff\u00e8rent que par la caract\u00e9ristique \u00e0 mesurer postulent pour le m\u00eame emploi. Ces exp\u00e9riences ont \u00e9t\u00e9 utilis\u00e9es avec succ\u00e8s pour quantifier l’ampleur de la discrimination \u00e0 laquelle sont confront\u00e9s les candidats minoritaires dans un nombre croissant de pays, et en particulier des pays de l’OCDE. Ce m\u00e9moire porte sur la discrimination ethnique dans les d\u00e9cisions d’embauche dans la partie germanophone du march\u00e9 du travail en Suisse et utilise un test par correspondance comme m\u00e9thodologie de base.”<\/p>\n

“As a part of the NCCR on the move\u2019s individual project on \u201cDiscrimination as an obstacle to social cohesion\u201d, this dissertation focuses on the discrimination of ethnic minorities in the Swiss labour market. Since discrimination is no longer an overt and thus easily observable phenomenon, research on discrimination, and especially on discrimination in hiring decisions has become more challenging. In order to study and measure the extent of discrimination in hiring decisions, researchers have used diverse approaches, depending on the disciplines, mostly drawing on statistical analyses of observational data, behavioural research, attitude research, and victim research (Veenman 2010). While all of these approaches have their strength and weaknesses, a rise of field experiments and in particular correspondence testing can be observed in recent years. Since the late 1960s researchers have used field experiments in which two candidates with exchangeable qualifications that differ only in the characteristic to be measured apply for the same job. These experiments have been successfully used to quantify the extent of discrimination faced by minority applicants in an increasing number of (in particular) OECD countries. This dissertation focuses on ethnic discrimination in hiring decisions in the German speaking part of the Swiss labour market and it uses a correspondence test as its core methodology.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
