The Causal Effect of Parents' Schooling on Children's Schooling: A Meta-Analysis
Pokorná, Anastasia ; Havránková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Kukačka, Jiří (referee)
One of the topics concerning education's improvement is the intergenerational transmission of education. The main goal of our study is to analyse the causal efect of parents' education on children's education. We collect 387 estimates of the causal efects from 23 studies. Using our dataset and meta-analytic methods, we test for the presence of publication bias in the literature and try to explain the heterogeneity in the results of the primary studies. After correction for publication bias, the mean becomes smaller than the mean reported in the literature and varies from 0.044 to 0.185. For exploring the heterogeneity of the estimates we use Bayesian Model Averaging and Frequentist Model Averaging. Our results suggest that there is a country heterogeneity in the estimates of the causal efect. Moreover, controlling for the size of a household in the original regression is important for the explanation of the diferences in the results of the primary studies. In addition to it, we collect 605 estimates of the non- causal associations from 39 studies and analyse the publication bias and the heterogeneity of results also using this sample. 1
