An Empirical Note on Selectivity Bias in Educational Production Functions.
Montmarquette, Claude; Houle, Rachel
Journal of Economic Education, v17 n2 p99-105 Spr 1986
Some sample data used in economic education research may be biased because missing observations may not be random. The authors explain a technique for estimating the relationship between students who fail to take standardized tests (the missing observations) and a core of general variables that might explain this behavior.
