| This paper presents the studies of possible correlations between the incomes of women and men in the USA. In our previous paper, when we proposed a two-parameter model of spouses income distribution, we observed that the separate incomes of women and men could be correlated. In this paper we prove that such correlations do exist, by computing the standard Pearson correlation coefficient. |
