چکیده
Much attention has recently focused on the rapidly rising costs of a college education, and whether the benefits of attending an elite private college have kept pace with the increasing costs. In this paper we analyze whether undergraduate college quality affects the likelihood that an individual attends graduate school. Using data on three cohorts of students from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972 and High School and Beyond, we find that on balance attendance at an elite private college significantly increases the probability of attending graduate school, and more specifically, graduate school at a major research institution.

متن کاملSpeed discrimination thresholds for first- and second-order bars and edges
Speed discrimination thresholds were measured for first- and second-order Gaussian bars and edges as a function of speed and the spatial scale of the modulation signal. Discrimination thresholds were generally higher for the second-order patterns when compared with modulations of luminance. There were no systematic effects of variations in the width of the bars and edges. The results are discus...
