摘要我们发现，在英国，义务教育阶段结束时的教育成就是后义务教育选择的强有力的预测因素。特别是，在GCSE中达到政府黄金标准的单一学业成功指标几乎能够预测所有观察到的义务教育后学历学习的发生率。尽管如此，两阶段最小二乘估计，利用入学规则引起的入学年龄的变化表明，在GCSE中达到黄金标准对学习学历的最小二乘效应是由于能力偏差或反向因果关系。
ABSTRACT We show that educational attainments at the end of the compulsory schooling stage are powerful predictors for post-compulsory educational choices in England. In particular, the single academic success indicator of achieving the Government’s gold standard in GCSE is able to predict virtually all the observed incidences of post-compulsory studies for academic qualifications. Notwithstanding, Two-Stage Least Squares estimation which exploits variations in school starting age induced by school entry rules suggests that the least-squares effect of achieving the gold standard in GCSEs on studying for academic qualifications is due to ability bias or reverse causation.
