State Education Policies and Changing School Practices: Evidence from the National Longitudinal Study of Schools, 1980-1993.
Stevenson, David Lee; Schiller, Kathryn S.
American Journal of Education, v107 n4 p261-88 Aug 1999
Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Schools, researchers examined the relationship between three state policies (graduation requirements, test score dissemination, and site-based management) and changes in school practices between 1980-93. Results indicate that state policies influenced school practices in policy specific domains, rather than having diffuse effects on the organization of schools. (SM)
