Sander, William – Education Economics, 2000
Examines parochial schooling's effect on high-school graduation rates for older adults in the United States, based on data drawn from the 1988 and 1989 General Social Survey. There was a positive correlation between parochial school attendance and high-school graduation, but no causal relationship. (Contains 26 references.) (MLH)
