摘要

本研究探讨了学券对高中辍学行为的因果效应。2010 年,日本政府开始为公立高中提供免费学费,并为就读私立高中的学生提供经济支持,以响应国际免费教育运动和政府的巨大变化。从那时起,大约一半的都道府县在一定的收入限制条件下,规定到 2019 年私立高中免收学费。我们利用这一变化来研究免学费政策对学生辍学行为的预防效果。通过分析都道府县一级的面板数据并进行差分分析,本研究发现该政策有效地减少了辍学现象。然而,我们发现在政策实施前后,高中毕业生的大学入学率和就业率在统计上没有显著变化。

The effect of free Tuition in private High schools on the High school dropout rate

This study investigates the causal effect of school vouchers on high school dropout behavior. In 2010, the Japanese government began offering free tuition for public high schools and financial support for students attending private high schools in response to the international movement toward free education and dramatic changes in the government. Since then, approximately half of all prefectures have made private high schools tuition free by 2019 under certain income restrictions. We use this variation to examine the preventive effect of the free tuition policy on student dropout behaviors. By analyzing prefecture-level panel data and performing difference-in-differences analysis, this study finds that the policy is effective in reducing dropouts. However, we find no statistically significant change in the college enrollment and employment rates of high school graduates before and after policy implementation.
