Monte-Carlo experimentation is a well-known approach to test the performance of alternative methodologies under different hypothesis. In the frontier analysis framework, whatever parametric or non-parametric methods tested, most experiments have been developed up to now assuming single output...

This study explicitly considers that education is a multi-input multi-output production process subject to inefficient behaviors that can be identified at student level. Therefore a distance function allows us to calculate different aspects of educational technology. The paper presents an...

The technology set involved in the estimation of a multi-output production frontier theoretically implies monotonicity on outputs. This is because an efficient firm cannot reduce the vector of outputs holding the vector of inputs fixed while it still belongs to the frontier. In empirical studies...

Les différentes vagues de l’enquête internationale PISA de l’OCDE sur les connaissances et les compétences des jeunes de 15 ans montrent de nettes différences de performance entre la Flandre et la Belgique francophone. La Flandre et la Communauté française ont en commun une forte...
