3,853 tests given to 1,920 unique children of the original recipients of a secondary education subsidy in Ghana. The parents were sampled students who had been offered a spot to start senior high school in Fall 2008 but had not yet enrolled (usually due to financial constraints) by the end of the fall quarter. Full information on sample construction for the parents can be found in Duflo, Esther, Pascaline Dupas, and Michael Kremer, “The Impact of Secondary School Subsidies on Career Trajectories in a Dual Labor Market: Experimental Evidence from Ghana,” Working Paper, 2024." |
