Abstract This study contributes to the literature on long-term effects of relative age (i.e. age differences between classmates in compulsory school) by examining tertiary education outcomes. We investigate whether there is evidence of relative age effects on university students enrolled in the Erasmus exchange program. We use administrative data on all exchange students who visited the Linnaeus University, in Sweden, in the four years since its founding. We find long-term evidence of RAEs—the youngest cohort students participate less often to the Erasmus exchange program than older cohort members.

伊拉斯谟交换计划——一个（相对）年龄较大的学生的问题

摘要 本研究通过检验高等教育成果，为有关相对年龄（即义务学校同班同学之间的年龄差异）的长期影响的文献做出贡献。我们调查是否有证据表明参加伊拉斯谟交换项目的大学生受到相对年龄影响。我们使用自瑞典林奈大学成立以来的四年内访问过瑞典林奈大学的所有交换生的行政数据。我们发现了 RAE 的长期证据——与年龄较大的队列成员相比，最年轻的队列学生参加伊拉斯谟交换计划的频率较低。
