The Effect of CETA on the Postprogram Earnings of Participants
利用连续纵向劳动力调查数据，估计CETA项目对参与者培训后收入的影响，并控制选择偏差，发现项目对收入有正向显著作用，女性受益更大。
This paper is a report of a study of efforts to use the Continuous Longitudinal Manpower Survey to estimate the effect that CETA has had on the posttraining earnings of participants. Particular attention is given to developing estimates that are free of selection bias-whether it results from nonrandom self-selection or selection by program administrators. The results indicate that CETA has had a positive and often significant effect on the earnings of participants, and that women benefit more from participation than do men. Among the various program activities that have been available under CETA, no one program is clearly more beneficial than the others.
