Based on a representative sample of Spanish employees from the Spanish Quality of Working Life Survey, pooled-sample data (2007–2010) are used to show that occupations with larger shares of women present lower prestige, controlling for a set of objective individual and work-related variables, and self-assessed indicators of working conditions. However, the results obtained do not support the devaluation theory since an inverted-U relationship between female share and occupational prestige is observed. This conclusion holds even after passing a battery of robustness checks.2018http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/7707910.1177/0950017017730528http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/77079oai:zaguan.unizar.es:77079info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S13WORK EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIETY 32, 2 (2018), 348-367All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
