Selection and educational attainment : Why some children are left behind? Evidence from a middle-income country / Méndez-Errico, Luciana ; Ramos Morilla, Xavier ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament d'Economia Aplicada
We model schooling as a sequential process and examine why some children are left behind. We focus on the factors that explain selection at early stages of the education system.
