Unwelcome Guests? The Effects of Refugees on the Educational Outcomes of Incumbent Students
研究了2010年海地地震后大量贫困、非英语的难民涌入佛罗里达公立学校，对本地学生教育成果的影响，发现零或微小的正面效应。
A point of contention in the refugee crisis involves possible adverse effects on host communities associated with poor, low-skilled migrants with low host-community language knowledge. We use unique matched birth and schooling records to examine the effects of a large influx of poor, non-English-speaking Haitian migrants into Florida public schools immediately following the devastating 2010 earthquake. We find zero or modestly positive estimated effects of these migrants on the educational outcomes of incumbent students in the year of the earthquake or in the 2 years that follow, regardless of the socioeconomic status, grade level, ethnicity, or birthplace of incumbent students.
