Evidence of Student Attendance as an Independent Variable in Education Production Functions
Abstract
Most studies of student performance that use the production function or input-output approach do not consider student attendance as an independent variable. Data from Baltimore public elementary schools indicate that student attendance is positively and significantly related to standardized achievement test performance. Consistent with other studies, the importance of the socioeconomic status of the students and the lack of a positive influence of school input measures such as the teacher/pupil ratio and expenditure per pupil are apparent.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
