An Adult Life Cycle Perspective on Public Subsidies to Higher Education in Three Countries.
Bowman, Mary Jean; And Others
Economics of Education Review, v5 n2 p135-45 1986
Empirical analyses of higher education subsidies are commonly misleading because they disregard appropriate age composition in the parental reference population. Further distortions occur depending on parents' categorization by income, occupation, or education. This paper addresses these issues using empirical data from Chile, France, and Malaysia.
