The Effect of the Number of Diplomas on Their Value.
Boylan, Ross D.
Sociology of Education, v66 n3 p206-21 Jul 1993
Reports on a study of data from the March 1980 Current Population Survey about the impact of the number of high school diplomas and their value in the labor market. Finds that, although traditional economic models suggest that a large number of diplomas diminishes their value, the queuing model shows that it could be an asset. (CFR)
