| Summary: | The objective of this paper is to study the level of education acquired by a person and the determinants of that result. For this purpose, we analyze five categories: attend primary school, complete primary school, attend secondary school, complete secondary school, and attend to university. A Logit model is applied for each category in order to explain the occurrence probability for every event analyzed. The conclusion reached is that the socio-economic characteristics are significant determinants of education acquired by a person and have important effects over the probability of meeting the different educational levels. |
