ABSTRACT

In the evaluation of any political strategy, it is essential to carry out the collection and analysis of the available data. The presentation of a complex phenomenon by means of synthetic measures can improve both the political actors’ understanding of the situation and the design of new measures. In this paper, we deal with the problem of the construction of a multidimensional composite indicator for the evaluation of educational systems in OECD countries. In our proposal, not only are those indicators included that measure the academic outcomes, but also a group of indicators that measures the social dimension of the educational system. A variation of a methodology based on Data Envelopment Analysis is developed to construct a composite multiplicative indicator that enables inter-temporal comparison and the detection of the sources of the variation.

摘要

在评估任何政治战略时，必须对可用数据进行收集和分析。通过综合措施呈现复杂现象可以提高政治行为者对形势的理解和新措施的设计。在本文中，我们处理了构建用于评价 OECD 国家教育系统的多维综合指标的问题。在我们的建议中，不仅包括衡量学业成绩的指标，还包括衡量教育系统社会维度的一组指标。
