中国西部农村初级中学配置效率评估：基于DEA方法

Efficiency Evaluation of Rural Junior High Schools in Western China： A Data Envelopment Analysis

随着新政策框架下国家对农村教育资源投入的不断增加，教育经费短缺问题日渐缓解，而此时学校效率问题将会成为政府和公众关注的焦点。采用数据包络分析方法(DEA)对西部农村部分初级中学资源配置效率进行评估，并探究影响学校资源配置技术效率和规模效率的因素。结果表明，西部农村初级中学资源配置效率整体状况良好，不过仍有约20%的学校还需要提升教育生产技术效率和改善规模效率。

Under the new policy framework， Chinese Government has been substantially increasing the investment of education resources in rural areas. Therefore， schools' efficiency will become the new focus of the Government and the public. In this paper， the authors use data envelopment analysis to evaluate the technical and scale efficiency of the resource allocation in 76 rural junior high schools in western China. The results show that the overall resource allocation efficiency in western rural junior high schools is good， but there are still about 20% schools needing to improve the education production technology efficiency and scale efficiency.
