Remote learning during the COVID pandemic has led to short- and long-term consequences for students' learning. So far, data on loss in early schooling have been limited. In this paper, we evaluate effect of remote 1st graders' school readiness skills 2nd–8th performance mathematics, reading science using rich collected Hungary before (n ≈ 55,000). The results show that kindergarten children 1st–4th-grade students were significantly negatively affected by restrictions compared their older...

Girls tend to outperform boys in reading tests, while they usually lag behind mathematics. However, the size of gender gap varies a great extent between countries. While existing figliterature explains these differences as being mainly due cultural factors, this paper explores whether cross-country variation is related educational policies like tracking, grade retention, and individualised teaching practices. The test score analysed mathematics, science using PISA 2012 dataset. Multilevel...

In the Central and Eastern European region, British EQ-5D-3L value set is used commonly in quality of life (QoL) studies. Only Poland Slovenia have country-specific weights. Our study aimed to investigate impact choice on evaluation 18 chronic conditions Hungary.Patients' index scores were calculated using VAS-based Slovenian time-trade-off-based Polish sets. We performed pairwise comparisons mean values by dimensions, diagnoses age groups. evaluated disease burden comparing matched gender...

Using large-scale administrative data from Hungary, we examine the effects of attending a high-poverty school in Grade 8 on academic achievement and later educational attainment, using matching approach. We find that is negatively associated with reading scores secondary education while there no significant association math scores. Estimates are negative case higher enrollment, but their statistical significance depends model specification. suggestive evidence has large direct effect over...

Abstract This study examines discrimination in teacher assessments and track recommendations against Roma minority students Hungary. We conducted a pre-registered randomized experiment among 413 primary school teachers. Participating teachers evaluated six mathematics or literacy grammar tests with fictitious, student names recommended high track. Our results show mixed evidence for students: do not discriminate test evaluations but so recommendations, though this latter effect is small....

Acceptable health and sufficientarianism are emerging concepts in resource allocation. We defined acceptability as the proportion of general population who consider a state acceptable for given age. Previous studies surveyed problems separately per EQ-5D-3L domain, while states with co-occurring was barely explored.To quantify 243 six ages from 30 to 80 years: 1458 state-age combinations (HAcs), denoted set EQ-5D-3L.In 2019, an online representative survey conducted Hungarian population....

We analyze the effect of individual social capital on wage income in European countries. A number studies have already tested earnings effects ties but majority them been limited to small samples and/or certain occupations. The major contribution paper is its assessment a multi-country context using large international dataset, EU-SILC. estimate level regressions for pooled sample and countries as well. Three indicators are used measure capital: memberships voluntary organizations, frequency...

Respondents were asked indicate that are still acceptable for ages between 30 80 years in 10-year intervals (VAS curve, AHCvas). recorded respondents' current health, health-related lifestyle, demographic background explored reference person they imagined when evaluating...

Several studies document that skills are strong predictors of earnings; however, less is known about the extent to which labour market size influences return skills. Using data from a unique representative survey recording skill requirements Hungarian firms, we show social have higher returns in large urban markets. Surprisingly, this pattern cannot be observed for cognitive skills, while manual slightly decreases with size. Our estimates robust different agglomeration measures, additional...

Csokonai’s Treatise on Epopeia, written for a vague purpose, is surprisingly close to the modern approach taken in Ritchie Robertson’s monograph Mock-Epic Poetry from Pope Heine. Neither Csokonai nor Robertson considers serious and parodic versions of epic as distinct tradition, heroic epics also contain elements, mock-epic poetry not really travesty epic, but – Aristotelian terms pseudo-heroic, pseudoactionary or pseudo-narrative (mock-heroic, mock-actionary mock-narrative) discourse. Hence...

Certain health problems are considered as a normal part of ageing, hence more acceptable at older, rather than younger ages.In the context this research, acceptability has been defined proportion general population who consider certain state for given age.We propose Markov model framework to quantify societal preferences concerning severity and age affected individuals.Health states in each cycle split not proportions, with different priority weights.Health gains originated from shifts...
