Non-experimental impact estimates of school financial education exposure on financial literacy outcomes
Non-experimental research is increasingly used in economics to evaluate the impact of interventions on outcomes. This article contributes to the literature on non-experimental impact evaluation by estimating the causal effect of school-based financial education on financial competence outcomes using observational data from Italy. In the PISA 2012 assessment for financial literacy, Italy scored 466 points, reflecting the performance of 15-year-old…
Vocational education and training systems in Europe
European countries differ widely in terms of vocational education and training (VET) tradition and the delivery of VET at the upper secondary level. A statistical approach to build a classification of VET systems in Europe is presented in the present article on the grounds of the size of the vocational enrollment, on the one hand, and the percentage of vocational enrollment in programs in which work and school are combined, on the other hand.

Does greater school resource allocation improve efficiency in education production? Performance assessment of Spanish public sector-funded schools
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to measure the efficiency performance of public sector-funded schools in Spain. Design/methodology/approach Using school-level data from Program for International Student Assessment 2012, cross-sectional models were estimated using stochastic frontier analysis (SFA). Technical efficiencies of public sector-funded schools (public schools and centros concertados ), and their determinants were estimated using a o…

This paper finds that the financial education is positively related to students' financial literacy scores when it is taught as a cross-curricular subject and as part of business or economics courses, and to a lesser extent as part of mathematics and as an ext…
