Cross-country data on the quantity of schooling: a selective survey and some quality measures

No 2014-15, Working Papers from FEDEA

Abstract: We survey a number of papers that have focused on the construction of cross-country data sets on average years of schooling. We discuss the construction of the different series, compare their profiles and construct indicators of their information content. The discussion focuses on a sample of OECD countries but we also provide some results for a large non-OECD sample.
