Quantitative analysis of inequalities arising to, within and from education and how are these affected by policy changes

我的研究旨在分析教育政策与社会经济不平等之间关系的不同方面。我使用大型行政数据集和定量计量经济学方法来确定政策变化对隔离的影响，以及获得教育和教育内部的不平等与后来的学术和劳动成果之间的关联。访问来自不同来源的去识别和保护的行政数据链接在一起，有助于更准确和全面地了解不同政策如何影响学校内部和学校之间的隔离，以及教育环境中的隔离如何影响以后的教育和劳动成果，因此，提供了一个独特的机会来回答以下研究问题：- 学校/班级隔离对个人的长期教育成果，如完成学业、高等教育入学/毕业和学习的科目有什么影响？在社会经济上更加多样化（种族隔离程度更低）的教室/学校中，对教育和劳动力市场有何影响？未成年父母对教育和劳动力市场有什么影响？这是如何通过社会经济劣势和辍学来调节的？智利最近实行的集中入学制度是否导致学生转学？这对学校的种族隔离有何影响？行政数据的使用有可能导致更明智的政策决定，为我们的社会提供强有力的见解，并指出需要改变以改善生活的领域。本着这种精神，本研究旨在为学校隔离文献做出贡献，并作为发达国家和发展中国家政策制定者的直接投入，以便他们能够做出基于证据的决策，考虑其政策可能对社会经济隔离产生的预期和非预期影响，以及对个人轨迹的影响，如学校成绩，高等教育入学率，高等教育研究类型等。

My research aims to analyse different aspects of the relationship between educational policies and socio-economic inequality. I use large administrative datasets and quantitative econometric methods to identify the effect of policy changes on segregation, and the association between inequalities in access to and within education and later academic and labour outcomes. Access to de-identified and safeguarded administrative data from different sources linked together facilitate a far more accurate and comprehensive picture of how different policies may affect segregation within and between schools and how segregation in educational contexts affects later educational and labour outcomes, and thus, provides a unique opportunity to answer the following research questions:- What effect does school/class segregation have on long term individual educational outcomes such as school completion, higher education enrolment/graduation and subject studied?- What are the educational and labour market effects of being exposed to a more socioeconomically diverse (less segregated) classroom/school?- What are the educational and labour market effects of being a teenage parent? How is this mediated by socioeconomic disadvantage and school dropout?- Has Chile's recently introduced centralized school admission system caused pupils to move school? How has this impacted school segregation?The use of administrative data has the potential to lead to better-informed policy decisions, providing powerful insights into our society and pointing to areas where change is needed to improve lives. With that spirit, this research intends to contribute to the literature on school segregation and serve as a direct input to policymakers in developed and developing countries, so they can make evidence-based decisions that consider intended and unintended effects their policies may have on socioeconomic segregation, as well as on individual trajectories as school attainment, enrolment in higher education, type of higher education studies, and others.
