| Abstract: | Since releasing the first edition in 2019, EdChoice has updated "The 123s" every year with all the newly published studies that fall within the inclusion criteria (please see Appendix). Since the 2024 edition, three new studies have been published. Because there are so many studies on the effect of private school choice programs on participants' test scores, previous editions of "The 123s" only included gold standard, experimental research on this outcome. After much feedback and deliberation, EdChoice has decided to include quasi-experimental research on participants' test scores this year. As a result, the participant test scores section is notably larger than in previous years despite no new studies being published in the last year. How To Use "The 123s": This is not a meta-analysis. The authors are not taking effect sizes and boiling them down to an average effect. The goal of "The 123s" is to present the increasingly large body of private school choice research in a clear and easy-to-read format and cite the relevant studies so that anyone who is interested in the individual results can easily find them and read in more detail. This resource should inform the debates about school choice. |
