Long-Run Substitutability Between More and Less Educated Workers: Evidence from U.S. States, 19501990 (2004, neutral): “For example, Fallon and Layard (1975) ask why the secular increase in the supply of more educated workers in the 1950s and 1960s did not decrease the education wage premium, and Griliches (1969), Bowles (1970), and Dougherty (1972) previously analyzed very similar issues.”

The Impact of Formal Institutions on Knowledge Economy (2013, neutral): “An additional complication besides measuring knowledge either as an input or output is that knowledge can also be measured as a quantity like average years of schooling, for instance (Bils and Klenow 2000), a quality as in cognitive skills (see, e.”
The Causal Impact of Education on Economic Growth: Evidence from U.S. (2009, background): “For highly developed countries, the most frequently discussed externality is education investments' fostering technological innovation, thereby making capital and labor more productive, generating income growth.”

The Long Walk to School: International Education Goals in Historical Perspective (2004, background): “Bils and Klenow (2000) conclude that the evidence favors a dominant role for the reverse channel from growth to schooling.”
How important is human capital? A quantitative theory assessment of world income inequality (2010, methodology): “Using the coefficients for returns to experience for each country reported by Bils and Klenow (2000), we found that the earnings of a worker with 20 years of experience relative to a worker with 10 years of experience is not systematically related to the level of per capita income across countries.”

Empirical Analysis of the Effects of Trade Openness on Economic Growth: An Evidence for South East European Countries (2015, background): “However, Bils & Klenow (2000) argue that strong empirical relation between growth and school enrolment rate is spurious since it is more likely that both variables are correlated with other omitted variables.”
Economic, Demographic, and Institutional Determinants of Life Insurance Consumption across countries (2003, background): “A similar debate on the role of education has taken place in the empirical growth literature; see Bils and Klenow (2000).”
