Abstract:The 'tipping' phenomenon, that is, an occupation (here as: occp./occps.) switching from dominance by one demographic group to dominance by another, has occurred in various occps., due e.g. to causes related to technological change. The court reporting occp. provides a new setting for testing the relevance of various proposed causes for the increased feminization of many occps. In the case, many of the general correlates, incl. declining wages, are not found.
