Adhi Indra Hermanu; Diana Sari; Merry Citra Sondari; Muhammad Dimyati – Cogent Education, 2024
The study aims to investigate the mediating role of output, productivity, and outcome variables in the relationship between input or process variables and research performance. By examining how these variables interact, the study aims to enhance our understanding of the factors that influence research performance. This role was investigated using…

Ferro, Gustavo; Romero, Carlos A. – Journal on Efficiency and Responsibility in Education and Science, 2021
We are interested in how codified knowledge is produced around the globe (which inputs are used to produce scientific articles and patented inventions) and the efficiency of the process (how do the best performers produce more with the same inputs or produce the same with less inputs). Using a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) efficiency frontier…

Ertugrul, Irfan; Öztas, Tayfun – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2018
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the most widely used efficiency measurement techniques in the literature. In the method developed by Charnes, Cooper, and Rhodes, the relation between input(s) and output(s) is examined and relative efficiency values are obtained for many decisionmaking units. In order to be able to accurately measure the…

Salas-Velasco, Manuel – Educational Research for Policy and Practice, 2020
It is important for policymakers and managers of higher education institutions knowing how well their universities are operating. This article aimed to show that data envelopment analysis (DEA) can be an excellent benchmarking instrument in higher education. First, by using several inputs and outputs at the institutional level, DEA can identify…

Moore, Kenneth; Coates, Hamish; Croucher, Gwilym – Studies in Higher Education, 2019
The paper contributes to the growing and often controversial study of higher education productivity measurement. The paper clarifies core productivity ideas, and considers alternative models for productivity assessment. Results from these models are explored using data from Australian higher education. Findings reveal implications for the…

Mad Ithnin, Salleh; Habidin, Nurul Fadly; Masnan, Abdul Halim; Mamat, Nordin – International Journal of Early Childhood Education and Care, 2016
This study is focused on conceptual paper and the purpose of this study is to conduct an empirical investigation into the Malaysian Preschool institutions, focusing on measuring their technical efficiency and productivity changes. This study is to examine the nature of productivity changes by means of bootstrapped Malmquist TFP indices. The study…

Fieger, Peter; Villano, Renato; Cooksey, Ray – International Journal of Training Research, 2016
Budgetary constraints on the public purse have led Australian Federal and State governments to focus increasingly on the efficiency of public institutions, including Technical and Further Education (TAFE) institutes. In this study, we define efficiency as the relationship between financial and administrative inputs and educational outputs. We…

Agasisti, Tommaso; Dal Bianco, Antonio; Landoni, Paolo; Sala, Alessandro; Salerno, Mario – Higher Education Quarterly, 2011
This paper investigates the efficiency of university departments in science, technology and medicine in an Italian Region (Lombardy). The aim of the paper is twofold: (i) to analyse the changes in productivity in recent years (from 2004 and 2007); and (ii) to detect factors that are potentially affecting efficiency. The research benefited from a…

Ragasa, Catherine; Berhane, Guush; Tadesse, Fanaye; Taffesse, Alemayehu Seyoum – Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension, 2013
Purpose: This article contributes new empirical evidence and nuanced analysis on the gender difference in access to extension services and how this translates to observed differences in technology adoption and agricultural productivity. Approach: It looks at the case of Ethiopia, where substantial investments in the extension system have been…

Undie, John Atewhoble; Okafor, Victor – African Higher Education Review, 2014
In fundamental economics, individuals acquired education for two broad reasons, as an investment and as consumption. The investment function of education has continued to create tension for job search leading to cases of unemployment. Entrepreneurship education and establishment of mega universities have been identified as panaceas. This paper…

Mamun, Shamsul Arifeen Khan – Education Economics, 2012
In the literature of higher education cost function study, enough knowledge is created in the area of economy scale in the context of developed countries but the knowledge of input demand is lacking. On the other hand, empirical knowledge in the context of developing countries is very meagre. The paper fills up the knowledge gap, estimating a…

Saavedra, Juan Esteban – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Chapter 1 examines the effects of college quality on students' learning, employment and earnings in Colombia. Scores on a national college "entry" test solely determine admission to many selective Colombian universities, creating exogenous peer and resource quality variation near admission cutoffs. In one regression discontinuity (RD)…

Gimenez, Victor M.; Martinez, Jose Luis – Economics of Education Review, 2006
This article presents a model for the analysis of cost efficiency within the framework of data envelopment analysis models. It calculates the cost excess, separating a unit of production from its optimal or frontier levels, and, at the same time, breaks these excesses down into three explanatory factors: (a) technical inefficiency, which depends…

McMahon, Walter W.; And Others – Economics of Education Review, 1992
Three strategic effects on the rates of return to vocational and technical education (VOTEC) are considered: (1) the availability of complementary inputs such as general education; (2) the capacity of VOTEC to teach continuing adaptation to technical change; and (3) economies of scale that can be realized.
