Tiivistelmä:Under the educational sorting hypothesis, an environment in which some individuals are constrained from entering university will be characterized by increasing pooling at the high school graduation level, as compared to an environment with greater university access. The human capital theory predicts higher university enrollment but identical high school dropout rates in regions with greater university access. The author tests the contradictory high school dropout predictions of the human capital and signaling models using NLSYM and NLSYW education data from the late 1960s and early 1970s.
