i have to use these means, together with the betas of a reg. More
precisely, b are betas by occupation, whilst x are the mean of the
variables in my dataset. To compute the total gender wage gap i have
to compute this for each occupation:
pf (xm-xf)bm + xmbm(pm-pf)+pfxf(bm-bf)+xmbm(pf -pm)

m and f is for male and female. P are the predicted probability from a
mlogit.b as said and asked yesterday are coef from wage reg.
Thanks
