1973年至1978年间,印尼政府进行了有史以来规模最大的学校建设项目之一。将各地区在学校建设数量上的差异与项目实施时间所导致的不同群体之间的差异结合起来,可以发现,每1000名儿童中每建立一所小学,教育年限平均增加了0.12至0.19年,工资增长了1.5%至2.7%。这意味着教育的经济回报估计在6.6%到10.6%之间。
Between 1973 and 1978, the Indonesian government engaged in one of the largest school construction programs oil record. Combining differences across regions in the number of schools constructed with differences across cohorts induced by the timing of the program suggests that each primary, school constructed per 1,000 children led to an average increase of 0.12 to 0.19 years of education, as well as a 1.5 to 2.7 percent increase in wages. This implies estimates of economic returns to education ranging from 6.8 to 10.6 percent.
