Quantifying the Supply Response of Private Schools to Public Policies
研究了纽约市公立学校资助改革如何影响私立学校的进入和退出，发现改革导致私立学校减少，其中20%的入学变化来自私立学校的退出和进入减少。
School policies that cause a large demand shift between public and private schooling may cause some private schools to enter or exit the market. We study how the policy effects differ under a fixed versus changing market structure in the context of a public school funding reform in New York City. We find evidence of a reduction in private schools in response to the reform. Using a model of demand for and supply of private schooling, we estimate that 20 percent of the reform’s effect on school enrollments came from increased private school exit and reduced private school entry.
