dc.description.abstractO texto analisa os determinantes de escolaridade, em nível de domicílio, para crianças de 14 anos nas regiões urbanas de São Paulo e do Nordeste do Brasil, usando os dados da PNAD de 1982. Compara a escolaridade e a renda dos pais em São Paulo e no Nordeste, e encontra diferenças regionais nas características dos pais que são consistentes com as diferenças regionais dos resultados escolares das crianças. O estudo conclui que o aumento de escolaridade não responderá a melhorias no status sócio-econômico do domicílio em si. Os resultados sugerem que maior quantidade e melhor qualidade na oferta de ensino podem eliminar uma grande fração da diferença de escolaridade entre as regiões, mesmo na ausência de mudanças substanciais no status sócio-econômico dos pais.pt_BR
dc.description.abstractalternativeThis paper analyzes the determinants of schooling attainment at the household level for 14-year-olds in urban regions of São Paulo and Northeast Brazil, using data from the 1982 PNAD. We find mean schooling of 4.75 years in São Paulo, and 3.25 years in the Northeast, both far short of the seven years of schooling that should have been completed by 14-years-olds. In attempting to explain the 1.5 year advantage in the schooling attainment of 14-year-olds in São Paulo, we find regional differences in the characteristics of parents that are consistent with the regional difference in child outcomes. Parents’ schooling and income are considerably higher in São Paulo, and inequality in parental schooling is higher in the Northeast. Regression estimates imply substantial positive effects of parental schooling and income on child schooling attainment. Our results suggest that only a small proportion of the gap in schooling attainment between São Paulo and the Northeast can be explained by differences in parental characteristics, however. Using our regression coefficients and mean characteristics in each region to predict schooling attainment off 14-year-olds, we are able to explain less than 20 percent of the 1.5 year schooling gap between the Northeast and São Paulo. This suggest that child schooling attainment will be relatively unresponsive to improvements in the socioeconomic status of household per se. The results suggest that direct increases in the quantity and quality of schooling supplied may be able to eliminate a large fraction of the schooling gap between regions, even in the absence of substantial changes in the socioeconomic status of parents.pt_BR
