Citations in the corpus
- Econometric methods for causal evaluation of education policies and practices: a non‐technical guide (2011, background): “Gibbons and Machin (2006) use discontinuities in school admissions patterns caused by admission district boundaries to estimate whether school quality affects housing prices.”
- Single-Sex Schooling and Academic Attainment at School and Through the Lifecourse (2010, methodology): “Although this is common practice now (Gewirtz, et al. 1995; Gibbons and Machin 2006), the NCDS children started secondary school in 1969, in a very different context.”
- Valuing School Quality, Better Transport, and Lower Crime: Evidence from House Prices (2008, background): “We find evidence (Gibbons and Machin, 2006), that, as one might expect, it is the most popular over-capacity schools that attract the highest premium for improvements in academic standards and that willingness to pay for school quality decreases quite rapidly with home-school distance.”
- Choice, Competition and Pupil Achievement (2008, background): “In this paper, we study whether pupils in Primary schools in England with a wider range of school choices achieve better academic outcomes than those whose choice is more limited; and whether Primary schools facing more competition perform better than those in a more monopolistic situation.”
- Valuing School Quality Using Boundary Discontinuities. CEE DP 132. (2013, methodology): “…popularised for use in property value analysis by the work of Black (1999), and has been employed several times since (e.g. Bogart and Cromwell, 2000; Gibbons and Machin, 2003, 2006; Bayer and McMillan, 2005; Kane et al., 2005; Davidoff and Leigh, 2007; Fack and Grenet, 2008; Bayer et al., 2007).”
