Estimating the Effects of Private School Vouchers in Multidistrict Economies
估计了一个包含多个公立学区和私立学校的学校质量与家庭居住及学校选择的一般均衡模型，并用芝加哥大都市区的数据模拟了两种大规模私立学校代金券项目的影响。
This paper estimates a general equilibrium model of school quality and household residential and school choice for economies with multiple public school districts and private (religious and nonsectarian) schools. The estimates, obtained through full-solution methods, are used to simulate two large-scale private school voucher programs in the Chicago metropolitan area: universal vouchers and vouchers restricted to nonsectarian schools. In the simulations, both programs increase private school enrollment and affect household residential choice. Under nonsectarian vouchers, however, private school enrollment expands less than under universal vouchers, and religious school enrollment declines for large nonsectarian vouchers. Fewer households benefit from nonsectarian vouchers.
