Abstract

This article examines the relationship between graduates' academic performance and the financial returns of their university education in Chile. By Analyzing data from 784 students who graduated from 10 selected Chilean universities between 2010 and 2016, this study utilizes linear and quantile regression to estimate returns. The results indicate that returns range from 4.9% to 15.0%, depending on the specifications and estimation methods employed. While linear regression suggests no significant association between academic performance and returns, quantile regression reveals a positive impact for lower and medium salary ranges, reducing the income gap with higher earners. The results of this study can be helpful in achieving a better understanding of the factors that influence returns to education.

智利大学学业成绩对教育经济回报的影响
本文探讨了智利大学毕业生的学业成绩与大学教育经济回报之间的关系。通过分析 2010 年至 2016 年期间从智利 10 所选定大学毕业的 784 名学生的数据,本研究利用线性回归和量化回归来估算回报率。结果表明,收益率从 4.9% 到 15.0% 不等,取决于所采用的规格和估算方法。线性回归表明,学业成绩与回报率之间没有显著关联,而量级回归则显示出对中低收入者的积极影响,缩小了与高收入者之间的收入差距。这项研究的结果有助于更好地理解影响教育回报的因素。
