(* DATA7-26: The first set of data were compiled by Jeffrey Wong for the study involving parental school choice in the United States. All data are for the year 1986, unless otherwise noted, for all 51 states, including the D.C. The last column has a zero for this data. D = 1 for the second data set and 0 for the first data set ENROLL = Percentage of students that enroll in private schools. The data for private school enrollment for each state was found by indexing public school enrollment values of the years 1980 and 1986. This index was then used to calculate the private school enrollment for 1986. Thus, the private school enrollment values are indexed numbers. This should not cause any problem in the model because the enrollment trends in public and private education do not alter drastically from year to year. Source: Digest of Education Statistics, 1990.
