教育个人收益率计量工具述评

Review on the measurement tools of individual returns to education

教育个人收益率的测算主要有基于教育成本收益的计量和明瑟收入函数2种基本的计量工具。教育成本收益分析范式下有教育收益现值法、教育收益比值法和精确法等3种计量工具,这3种计量工具由于明显的局限性还较少有研究者采用。目前学界普遍采用的明瑟收入函数法仍然需要从遗漏变量、测量误差、选择偏差与异质性等方面进行改进和校正。

The estimates of individual returns to education are mainly based on measure costs and ben efits of education and Mincer earnings function measurement tools.The paradigm of educational costbenefit analysis contains three measurement tools,the present value of returns to education,education earnings ratio method and precise measurement tools.Due to the obvious limitations,these three measurement tools are also less likely to have researchers use.Currently scholars commonly used Mincer earnings function method omitted variables,measurement error,selection bias and heterogeneity aspects still need to be improved.
