Disabled Peers and Academic Achievement

Jane Friesen; Ross Hickey; Brian Krauth

We use data on students in grades 47 in the Canadian province of British Columbia to investigate the effect of having disabled peers on value-added exam outcomes. Longitudinal data for multiple cohorts of students are used together with school-by-grade-level fixed effects to account for endogenous selection into schools. Our estimates suggest that same-grade peers with learning and behavioral disabilities have an adverse effect on the test score gains of nondisabled students in British Columbia. However, these effects are statistically insignificant and are sufficiently small that they are unlikely to raise concerns about the placement of this group of disabled students. The effect of peers with other disabilities is also small and statistically insignificant but varies in sign.

How Student Disability Classifications and Learning Outcomes Respond to Special Education Funding Rules: Evidence from British Columbia

Michele Battisti; Jane Friesen; Ross Hickey

En 2002, la Colombie-Britannique a cessé de donner aux districts scolaires des subventions liées à l’éducation des enfants ayant des besoins spéciaux. Dans cette étude, nous évaluons les impacts de ce changement sur le nombre d’enfants ayant des besoins spéciaux et sur leurs résultats scolaires. Des données sur les élèves recueillies au moyen d’un panel montrent ainsi que, après l’arrêt des subventions, moins d’élèves étaient susceptibles d’être désignés comme étant doués, ayant un trouble comportemental moyen ou ayant une déficience mentale légère. Notre analyse des résultats des élèves de 7e année aux tests standardisés indique également que, parmi les élèves qui avaient fréquenté l’école pendant la plus longue période après l’arrêt des subventions, les résultats en lecture des enfants doués avaient baissé de façon substantielle.
