Abstract

We use event history analysis on an aggregate dataset from 1997 to 2018 to understand the state-level antecedents associated with the adoption of test-based grade retention policies. Findings indicate that the educational conditions of a state to be more predictive of retention policy adoption than the political, economic, and geographic measures. In particular, a greater share of Black students in a state, lower fourth grade NAEP reading proficiency rates, and larger student enrollments in the early grades were all associated with increased odds of grade retention policy adoption.

采用基于考试的成绩保留政策:一个事件历史分析

我们对1997年至2018年的汇总数据集进行了事件历史分析，以了解与采用基于考试的成绩保留政策相关的州一级先决条件。研究结果表明，一个州的教育条件比政治、经济和地理因素更能预测挽留政策的采用。特别是，一个州黑人学生的比例越高，四年级NAEP阅读熟练率越低，低年级学生的入学率越高，这些都与年级保留政策采用的几率增加有关。
