我们再次讨论英国教育的回报率是多少。我们做了两个贡献。首先,我们重新评估Harmon和步行者(1995)、Oreopoulos(2006)和Devereux和哈特(2010)对方程规格和估计方法的稳健性。其次,我们概括了以前的IV的方法,使用出生的月份在一个更准确的IV利用1947年,1963年和1972年英国离校年龄改革的计算。我们的研究结果突出了方程规格的重要性,他们提供了一个强大的情况下,6%的男性教育回报率。
We revisit the question of what is the rate of return to education in Great Britain. We make two contributions. Firstly, we re-assess the robustness of Harmon and Walker (1995), Oreopoulos (2006) and Devereux and Hart (2010) to equation specification and estimation method. Secondly, we generalize the previous IV approaches by using the month of birth in the calculation of a more accurate IV exploiting the 1947, 1963 and 1972 UK School Leaving Age reforms. Our results highlight the importance of equation specification and they provide a robust case for a 6% Rate of Return to Education for men.
