Human capital has been defined as the educational attainment which is achieved during the years of education. Barro-lee (1995),Viktam Nehru, Eric Swanson, and Ashutosh Dubey (1995) started analyzing and measuring human capital.

It was argued that in it for human capital is accumulated also through learning by doing, thus individual experiment could be individually defined as a proxy for it.

Using Mincer's personal earning function, with certain adaptations Iranian economy, the authors studied such effects on both rural and urban households during the years 1984-2000. The results indicated that an individual's income is not only influenced by human capital but also by gender.
