Adolescents in Grade 8 (aged 12-13 years) and Grade 12 (aged 16-18 years) were asked to allocate rewards between a male and female worker in four separate cases. In one case, a male with no children was contrasted with a female with three children. In the second, a male with three children was contrasted with a female with none. In the third case, both workers had no children; in the fourth, both had three. The results indicated that concern for need significantly decreased with age with subjects preferring to allocate rewards according to the norm of equal work for equal pay. Boys' concern for need was correlated with a self-report measure of mother identification.

This article describes the evolution of Edgeworth’s thought on women’s wages and on the principle of “equal pay for equal work.” We first document Edgeworth’s early works on “exact utilitarianism” as an epistemic basis for his reflections upon women’s wages. Second, we review his first writings on women’s work and wages: early mentions in the 1870s, his book reviews published in the Economic Journal, and the substantial preface he wrote for the British Association for the Advancement of Science 1904 report on Women in Printing Trades. Third, we document his 1922 British Association presidential address in relation to the burgeoning literature on women’s work and wages within political economy at the time. Finally, we show that his 1923 follow-up article on women’s wages and economic welfare constitutes an update of his “aristocratical utilitarianism” in the post–World War I context.
