Peer reviewedOlsen, Robert B.; Unlu, Fatih; Price, Cristofer; Jaciw, Andrew P. – National Center for Education Evaluation and Regional Assistance, 2011
This report examines the differences in impact estimates and standard errors that arise when these are derived using state achievement tests only (as pre-tests and post-tests), study-administered tests only, or some combination of state- and study-administered tests. State tests may yield different evaluation results relative to a test that is…

Past estimates of the effect of family income on child development have often been plagued by endogeneity and measurement error. In this paper, we use two simulated instrumental variables strategies to estimate the causal effect of income on children's math and reading achievement. Our identification derives from the large, non-linear changes…

NAEP estimates for state-level achievement are based on measurement of the performance of a random sample of…
