本文调查了研究教育对经济增长影响的文献。具体来说，我们对 57 项研究（989 项估计值）进行了元回归分析，结果表明，对于教育对成长的积极影响存在很大的出版物选择偏差。一旦我们考虑到这一点，教育的真正增长效应在不同研究中并不相同，而是根据几个因素而变化。具体来说，这是由于教育测量和研究特征的差异，主要是模型规范和使用的数据类型，以及发表研究的研究机构的质量，例如学术期刊与工作论文。 (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
This paper surveys the literature which examines the effect of education on economic growth. Specifically, we apply meta-regression analysis to 57 studies with 989 estimates and show that there is substantial publication selection bias toward a positive impact of education on growth. Once we account for this, the genuine growth effect of education is not homogeneous across studies, but varies according to several factors. Specifically, it is attributed to differences in education measurement and study characteristics, mainly model specification as well as type of data used, and the quality of research outlets where studies are published, e.g., academic journals vs. working papers.
