Does Mandatory Attendance Improve Student Performance?
Marburger, Daniel R.
Journal of Economic Education, v37 n2 p148-155 Spr 2006
Previous empirical literature indicates that student performance is inversely correlated with absenteeism. The author investigates the impact of enforcing an attendance policy on absenteeism and student performance. The evidence suggests that an enforced mandatory attendance policy significantly reduces absenteeism and improves exam performance.
