چکیده

آموزش و پرورش به عنوان یک پدیده اجتماعی مؤثر، نقش مهمی در تحقق اهداف فرهنگی، اجتماعی، سیاسی و اقتصادی دارد. با توجه به اهمیت آموزش بر درآمد، تاکنون مطالعات متعددی در زمینه برآورد بازدهی آموزش انجام شده است که تنها تعداد معدودی به مسأله ی تورش در برآوردها توجه کرده اند. در برازش مقطعی، بدون توجه به متغیر ناهمگنی توانایی و انگیزه فردی، به کارگیری روش حداقل مربعات معمولی، سبب تورش مثبت در برآورد بازدهی آموزش شده است. در این مطالعه، برای کاهش تورش در تخمین، از روش شبه پانل برای برآورد بازده آموزش در ایران استفاده شده است. داده های شبه پانل، با داده سازی به روش کوهورت و تکرار مقطع، با استفاده از ریزداده های طرح هزینه درآمد خانوار شهری مرکز آمار ایران در سال های 1370 تا 1391 ساخته شد. افراد هدف مورد مطالعه از این طرح، شاغلینی بودند که در فاصله سال های 1316 تا 1360 متولد شده بودند. نتایج حاصل از برآورد الگو شبه پانلی نشان داد که آموزش تأثیر مثبت و معنی داری بر درآمد دارد. نرخ نسبتاً بالای بازدهی آموزش نشان می دهد که سرمایه گذاری در آموزش دارای توجیه اقتصادی است؛ لذا سیاست گذاران باید به توسعه ی آن اهتمام ورزند. هم چنین بازدهی آموزشی مردان بیش از زنان است که این به دلیل ساختار بازار کار ایران و وجود تفکیک جنسیتی مشاغل و حضور زنان کم سواد در مشاغل خدماتی و زنان تحصیل کرده آموزش عالی در بخش های آموزشی و بهداشتی است. نتیجه دیگر این که، رابطه ی سال های سن و درآمد افراد U وارونه بوده است؛ یعنی با افزایش سن ابتدا درآمد افزایش می یابد؛ اما بعد رسیدن به نقطه ی حداکثری، دیگر انتظار نمی رود که افزایش سن به افزایش درآمد منتهی شود.

The Return to Education in IRAN by Using Age Cohorts and Pseudo Panel Data Approach

Education as an effective social phenomenon has an important role in the realization of the cultural, social, political and economic objectives.The important role of education in individual and social behavior and its effect on economic growth and development process led to a new branch in economics as economics of education. Now the question for society is how education can affect their income increasing process, and how much should be policymakers invested in education? Given the importance of education on earnings, numerous studies have been performed in estimating the returns to education. In traditional approach, Mincer's earning function were used for estimating return of education. Mincer provided an earning function as a semi Logarithmic regression that dependent variable is income and independent variables are years of education and years of experience. The coefficient of years of schooling represents the average rate of return during training. Using ordinary least squares (OLS) for estimation of returns to education in Mincer's earning function is unobserved heterogeneity among individuals. As a matter of fact, the main problem discussed in the literature on the returns to education is the endogeneity of the schooling variable. Individual choice of years of schooling is not exogenous and tends to be correlated with unobservables in the error term of the earnings function. The likely candidates for these unobservables are ability or motivation, which correlate with years of education and with earnings, giving rise to “ability bias” (Card, 1999). Given the expected positive correlations between ability and both earnings and years of schooling, the standard critique emphasizes an upward bias. To avoid inbreeding bias and individual unobserved heterogeneity, it is better to use panel data, but the main limitation is the lack of longitudinal data, especially in developing countries. As a result, it can be said that in studies which have been done in the field of returns to education, only a few of them have paid attention to the problem of estimation bias. Deaton (1985) used the cohort to solve the problem and suggested pseudo panel data. Each cohort is a group with specific members. Pseudo panel date is following the people's age group in a higher level than Cross-sectional data. The age groups have been made from repeated cross-sectional data from household surveys according to a group of people with specific characteristics. In this study, we employ the pseudo-panel approach for estimating returns to education in Iran. Pseudo-panel data are constructed from repeated cross sections of Household Expenditure and Income Survey (HEIS) conducted by Statistical Center of Iran during 1991to 2012. The subjects were employee who was born between the years 1937 to 1981. In this study, 22 the period and 9 age group is used to form the cohort. Each cohort has been divided in 5-year period. For example, the ninth age group are 54-50 that are born between 1937-1941. On the base of results, education has a positive and significant impact on earnings. The relatively high rate of educational return shows that investment in education is economically feasible; therefore, policy makers should pay more attention to its development. Also, the men’s educational return is more than women’s. On the other hand, the relation between age/ experience and income is inverse U. This means that with age / experience of the income increases. But, after reaching the maximum point, it do not expected more age / years of experience lead to an increase in income.
