我们使用10个拉丁美洲国家的小学数据，估计分散的学校决策对学生成绩的影响。我们开发了一个模型，表明当地的自主努力将共同决定与学生的学习成绩。该模型预测，最小二乘估计偏向于发现学校自主权对学生成绩的积极影响。实证测试证实了这些预测。最小二乘估计表明，分散决策对考试成绩有很强的积极影响，但这些结果在校正学校自主权的内涵后被逆转。然而，结果支持的作用，家长参与学校的积极影响学生的成绩。
Using data on primary schools in 10 Latin-American countries, we estimate the impact of decentralized school decision-making on student performance. We develop a model that shows that local autonomous effort will be jointly determined with student academic performance. The model predicts that least squares estimates are biased toward finding a positive impact of school autonomy on student performance. Empirical tests confirm these predictions. Least squares estimates show a strong positive effect of decentralized decision-making on test scores, but these results are reversed after correcting for the endogeneity of school autonomy. However, results support the role of parental participation in the schools as a positive influence on student achievement.
