Efficiency in the transformation of schooling into competences: A cross-country analysis using PIAAC data Calero, Jorge, 1963- Murillo Huertas, Inés P. Raymond Bara, José Luís Eficàcia de l'ensenyament Competències bàsiques en educació Estimació d'un paràmetre Mostreig (Estadística) Effective teaching Competency based education Parameter estimation Sampling (Statistics) This study (i) compares the competence levels of the adult population in a set of OECD countries; (ii) assesses the comparative efficiency with which the education system in each country transforms schooling into competences, distinguishing by educational level, and (iii) tracks the evolution of this efficiency by birth cohorts. Using PIAAC data, the paper applies standard parametric frontier techniques under two alternative specifications. The results obtained identify Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Japan as being the most efficient and Spain, the United Kingdom, Italy, Ireland and Poland as the least efficient. 2021-05-06T15:50:33Z 2022-07-05T05:10:25Z 2021-04-01 2021-05-06T15:50:33Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Versió postprint del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.1111/boer.12249 Bulletin of Economic Research, 2021, vol. 73, num. 2, p. 252-275 https://doi.org/10.1111/boer.12249 (c) Board of Trustees of the Bulletin of Economic Research, 2021 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess John Wiley & Sons Articles publicats en revistes (Economia)
