Performance-based accountability systems at the organizational level
Public organizations have widely adopted performance measurement practices that carry significant consequences for both organizations and their employees. This article proposes that the design of these performance-based accountability systems plays a crucial role in shaping organizational performance. First, we develop a typology of performance-based accountability systems, proposing that strong incentives aimed at the organization, rather than t…
The importance of external assessments
We exploit the random allocation to a semi-external assessment in Math (SEAM) at the end of high school in Denmark to test the effect of SEAM on subsequent enrollment and graduation in post-secondary education. We find that SEAM in high school reduces the gender gap in graduation from post-secondary STEM degrees, and we discuss possible mechanisms. Our results show that cancelling external assessments, as was temporarily implemented in many regio…
The impact of parents' years since migration on children's academic achievement
In this paper, we employ register data for eight cohorts of second-generation immigrant pupils to identify the impact of each parent's years since migration on their children's school achievements. We exploit variation in years since migration and within-family variation. We find evidence of a positive impact of parents' years since migration on children's academic achievement. Mothers' years of residence tend to be more important for Danish, whi…
School Choice, Universal Vouchers and Native Flight from Local Schools
Using data from Copenhagen school registers and other sources, I test the hypothesis that Danes are more likely to opt out of their local public school if it has a large concentration of immigrant pupils. The results suggest that, when a rich set of covariates at student, school, and neighbourhood levels is controlled for, up to an immigrant concentration of about 35 per cent in the local school, opting out decisions of Danes are not affected. Bu…
Living and Learning Separately? Ethnic Segregation of School Children in Copenhagen
Documenting the level of ethnic residential and school segregation in Copenhagen shows low levels of residential segregation due to suburbanisation (opposite to the US experience), but high levels of school segregation, which for some student groups reach levels comparable to the extreme segregation typical for US cities. Thus, the evidence from Copenhagen suggests that low residential segregation does not necessarily translate into moderate scho…
