Abstract:
|
Using panel data for non-OECD countries covering the period 1970-2012, this paper analyzes
the impact of the duration of primary education on school enrollment in secondary education.
The empirical results show that in those countries where the duration of primary education is
increased, the enrollment rate in secondary education decreases, and the opposite is observed
in those countries where the duration of primary education is reduced. These results are in line
with the fertility model approach; that is, in developing and underdeveloped countries parents
do not have incentive to pursue further education for their children given the high perceived
present economic value of children.
