- Human capital, higher education institutions, and quality of life (2011, background): “1 Rauch (1993), Moretti (2004b), Dalmazzo and Blasio (2007a,b) and others offer support for the existence of human capital externalities by showing that the local level of human capital is positively correlated with wages even after controlling for individual worker characteristics.”
- Why Are Smart Cities Growing? Who Moves and Who Stays (2011, result): “9Hickman (2009) finds similar results for the state of Florida as a result of its “Bright Futures Scholarship Program.””
- The Economic Impact of Colleges and Universities (2007, background): “After reviewing the literature, Lange and Topel (2004) conclude that there may be productivity externalities from the accumulation of local human capital, but they are difficult to quantify.”

- Social and Economic Returns to College Education in the United States (2012, background): “In fact, estimated social returns to education exceed private returns (Lange & Topel 2006).”
- Human Capital Development (2010, unknown): “While cross-country macro studies show increasing rates of return from higher levels of education (for example, Lange and Topel 2006, Barro and Lee 2010), micro-level studies show decreasing social returns and U-shaped private returns as one goes from primary to tertiary education (Table 8).”
- The Long-Run Effects of Teacher Strikes: Evidence from Argentina (2017, background): “41 For example, conventional education economics suggests that the return to education consists of two components—a human capital component and a signaling component (Lange and Topel 2006).”
