Add to ORKGData from the Australian Twins Survey are analysed in order to compare the relative import-ance of the role of family background as a mediating influence on the relationship between schooling and income for males and females. The analysis reveals that family background is a considerably greater influence on males than on females. This finding is consistent with a greater screening role for education in the case of females and with a process of inter-generational transmission of inequality for males but not for females
