Study reveals declining trend in returns to education for male workers in Spain
This paper looks at how education affects earnings in Spain using a survey on workplace quality of life. The researchers used data from five survey waves to analyze the returns to education for male workers. They found that the rate of return to education in Spain is slightly decreasing over time. By considering qualifications instead of just years of schooling, they found evidence that the relationship between education and earnings is not always linear. The study also looked at differences in earnings based on region.
