| Abstract | "This article reviews some studies of individual demand for higher education undertaken during the 1970s. It argues that although lifetime earnings are positively related to educational qualifications, rates of return to education do not seem to matter much for either public or private educational decisions. Public educational decisions seem to be affected more by such factors as the inertia of the system, expected externalities of sociopolitical importance, which are not measurable and, therefore, are exluded from the rate of return calculations and some educational objectives, such as meeting social demand and for ensuring equal opportunities to all individuals, which public authorities adopt at any time period. On the other hand, pupils'educational plans for post- secondary education were found to be greatly influenced by their scholastic achievement, sex and socioeconomic status. It was also found that the economic factor which clearly enters into their decisions function, is initial salary differentials. However, a high proportion of pupils do not possess this information. It is also argued that individual demand for postsecondary education could be estimated with a high degree of approximation on the basis of pupils' scholastic achievement at secondary school, sex and socio-economics status." Diese Thesen werden durch OEDC- Fallstudien und eine griechische Untersuchung bei Sekundarschulabsolventen (n = 7425) erhaertet. |
