Efficiency in education: a review of literature and a way forward (2017, neutral): “…Colbert et al (2000), Portela and Thanassoulis (2001), Robst (2001), Mizala et al (2002), Thanassoulis and Portela (2002), Dolton et al (2003), Johnes (2006b) (2006c), Waldo (2007a), Cherchye et al (2010), De Witte et al (2010), Portela and Camanho (2010), Cordero-Ferrera et al (2011),…”
Efficiency and Productivity Change in the English Higher Education Sector from 1996/97 to 2004/5 (2008, neutral): “Recent studies of efficiency measurement of UK HEIs include Athanassopoulos & Shale (1997); Glass et al (2006); Johnes (2006); Flegg & Allen (2007).”
Beyond frontiers: comparing the efficiency of higher education decision‐making units across more than one country (2009, methodology): “This echoes a finding, obtained from a parametric analysis, reported in a companion paper by Agasisti and Johnes (2006).”
Comparing efficiency in a cross-country perspective: the case of Italian and Spanish state universities (2010, methodology): “Instead, the correlations are very low between the results provided in this paper and those by Agasisti & Johnes (2006).”
Efficiency, technology and productivity change in Australian universities, 1998–2003 (2008, methodology): “Johnes, Johnes, Thanassoulis, Lenton & Emrouznejad (2004) also include robustness tests for outliers that could potentially be useful.”
Measuring the research performance of Chinese higher education institutions using data envelopment analysis (2008, background): “Evidence from HEI level studies suggests that mean technical efficiency varies from around 70 to 80% (Ahn & Seiford, 1993; Ng & Li, 2000) to well over 90% (Abbott & Doucouliagos, 2003; Ahn et al., 1989; Athanassopoulos & Shale,1997; Avkiran, 2001; Breu & Raab,1994; Johnes 2006a,b).”
Cross-Country Efficiency Comparison between Italian and Spanish Public Universities in the period 2000-2005 (2008, background): “Complete treatments of this subject are in Zhu (2003) and Cooper et al., (2006), and a useful description of main uses in HE context could be found in Johnes (2006).”
Estimating an educational production function for five countries of Latin America on the basis of the PISA data (2013, background): “…to which efficiency analysis has been applied have been primary and secondary schools (e.g. Bessent et al., 1982, and Deller and Rudnicki, 1993), universities (Athanassopoulos and Shale, 1997) or university departments (e.g. Johnes and Johnes, 1993 and 1995, Madden et al., 1997, Johnes, 2006).”
Explaining Increases in Higher Education Costs (2008, background): “For a recent application of frontier estimation in higher education, see Johnes (2006).”
Application of DEA method in efficiency evaluation of public higher education institutions (2014, background): “The analysis indicated that there was a substantial rise in the weighted geometric mean of the technical efficiency score during the study period, although this rise was most noticeable between 1987/88 and 1990/91.”
