SCHIEFELBEIN, Ernesto  and  SIMMONS, John. Os determinantes do desempenho escolar: uma revisão de pesquisas nos países em desenvolvimento. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 1980, n.35, pp.53-72. ISSN 0100-1574.

This paper reviews results of twenty-six studies on the determinants of student cognitive achievement in developing countries. It describes the studies, reviews the results for each of the major determinants of cognitive student achievement - schooling characteristics, teachers' attributes, and student traits - and concludes with the implications for policy and research. The manuscript was commissioned by the Research Review and Advisory Group as part of a larger examination of educational research as it relates to educational problems in developing countries. It is intended that the information gathered will be helpful to institutions in the developing countries concerned with education policy, programmes, research and training, and to international funding organizations.

Keywords : Rendimento escolar; Países em desenvolvimento; Condições socioeconômicas; Pesquisa educacional; Políticas educacionais.
