Coverage rates for Science Proficiency Level 2 in private schools, a metric used to calculate the Human Opportunities Index (HOI). The data is produced by the LAC Equity Lab and hosted by the World Bank. The temporal and geographic coverage is not specified.
Use Cases
- Analyze the relationship between private school attendance and science proficiency coverage rates.
- Compare coverage rates for Science Proficiency Level 2 across different circumstance groups (e.g., income, location) within private schools.
- Use the coverage rate as a component for calculating or validating the Human Opportunities Index (HOI) for education.
Strengths
- Data is derived from a standardized metric (coverage rate) used in a recognized index (HOI).
- Focus on a specific educational outcome (Science Proficiency Level 2) within a defined institution type (private schools).
Limitations
- Sample size, row count, and specific time range are unknown.
- The coverage rate metric does not account for inequality of access between different circumstance groups, limiting distributional analysis.
