B. Bhaskara Rao, Sriram Shankar

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

This article estimates with the Least Trimmed Least Squares (LTS) a specification suitable to estimate the permanent growth effects of human capital, using educational attainment (H) as a proxy. Our results show that H has significant permanent growth effects but these are much smaller than in Temple (1999).
