I'm a little confused by the conventions of this article (this isn't my field), but I think Table 4 on page 2226 and Figure 4 on page 2228 (and the surrounding text) are in fact looking at the total competence of the group before and after gender quotas.
- Jensson 5y agoThe reason it is so strange is that it has different data for the men and women, they used among other things the military intelligence test which only men takes and income to measure competence. Income is definitely not a fair competence measure between men and women so you can't use that either, so it makes sense that they didn't compare competence directly. So I am pretty sure that graph assumed that men and women had the same competence before, as the measures they had weren't comparable at all between the groups.
