摘要

本文研究了俄罗斯具有里程碑意义的大学扩张政策对工资的影响。我们构建了一个独特的个人层面数据集，将17岁时个人居住地的大学校园供应与成年后的教育程度和时薪联系起来。使用参数和半参数选择模型，我们证明了俄罗斯大学教育的回报是异质的，取决于个人是否生活在大学可用性有限的地区。成本效益分析表明，大学教育对受限制城市学生的贴现净收益是大城市学生的两倍。

Heterogeneity in the Effect of College Expansion Policy on Wages: Evidence from the Russian Labor Market

This paper studies the effects of a landmark college expansion policy on wages in Russia. We construct a unique individual-level data set linking the supply of college campuses in an individual’s place of residence at age 17 with educational attainment and hourly wages in adulthood. Using parametric and semiparametric selection models, we demonstrate that the returns to college education in Russia are heterogeneous and depend on whether individuals live in areas with limited college availability. The cost-benefit analysis demonstrates that discounted net benefits of college education for students in constrained municipalities exceed those for students in large cities twofold.

期刊介绍： Journal of Human Capital is dedicated to human capital and its expanding economic and social roles in the knowledge economy. Developed in response to the central role human capital plays in determining the production, allocation, and distribution of economic resources and in supporting long-term economic growth, JHC is a forum for theoretical and empirical work on human capital—broadly defined to include education, health, entrepreneurship, and intellectual and social capital—and related public policy analyses. JHC encompasses microeconomic, macroeconomic, and international economic perspectives on the theme of human capital. The journal offers a platform for discussion of topics ranging from education, labor, health, and family economics.
