Does Foreign Aid In Education Promote Economic Growth? Evidence From Sub-Saharan Africa (2014, background): “Rodrik et al. (2004) found that institutional quality has a robust effect on growth and that once institutions are controlled for, measures of geography and openness to trade cease to have a significant effect on growth.”
Economic complexity, human capital and economic growth: empirical research based on cross-country panel data (2017, background): “Petrakis and Stamatakis (2002) showed that primary and secondary education mattered more for growth in less developed countries than in more developed economies.”
The composition of human capital and economic growth: Evidence from China using dynamic panel data analysis (2011, background): “Most of empirical literatures related to different educational levels were based on evidence provided by cross-country studies (Barro & Lee, 1997; McMahon, 1998; Petrakis & Stamatakis, 2002).”
Human Capital Spillovers, Productivity and Regional Convergence in Spain (2009, unknown): “Thus, for example, while Gorostiaga (1999) found the estimated coefficient of human capital to be negative and significant, Serrano (1999) and Galindo-Martín and Alvárez-Herranz (2004) found that human capital has a positive impact on the production function.”
The Role of ICT in Modulating the Effect of Education and Lifelong Learning on Income Inequality and Economic Growth in Africa (2019, unknown): “This is in accordance with the literature (see Petrakis & Stamatakis, 2002; Asiedu, 2014; Tchamyou, 2019a) which has shown that primary education has a comparative advantage in terms of social returns in the context of less industrialised economies.”
The Mobile Phone in the Diffusion of Knowledge for Institutional Quality in Sub-Saharan Africa (2016, unknown): “In essence, Petrakis and Stamatakis (2002) and Asiedu (2014) have argued that, compared to other levels of education, the underlying form of education is linked to higher social returns in undeveloped/developing countries.”
Higher education and economic growth in Africa (2006, background): “While some researchers use enrolment ratios (for example, Barro, 1999, 1997; Petrakis and Stamatakis, 2002), others use the proportion of the population that has attained a certain level of education (Barro and Sala-i-Martin, 1995); still others use expenditures on education (McMahon, 1987, 2000; Ap”
What Works to Improve the Quality of Student Learning in Developing Countries (2015, background): “…to shift towards improving access to primary education, as the latter was recognised to have the highest economic returns in developing countries (Psacharopoulos, 1981, 1985; Psacharopoulos et al., 1986; Petrakis and Stamatakis, 2002; Psacharopoulos and Patrinos, 2004; Asiedu and Nandwa, 2007).”
Education, lifelong learning, inequality and financial access: evidence from African countries (2020, result): “…levels of education, primary education provides enabling conditions for more positive income redistribution is consistent with the literature (see Petrakis & Stamatakis, 2002; Asiedu, 2014) on the comparative advantage of primary education in social returns when economies are less industrialised.”
