Keywords:
Shadow education, College students, Cognitive ability, ChinaAbstract
This study mainly aimed to examine the effectiveness of shadow education on college students’ cognitive ability by taking junior and senior students of art majors in Shanxi Province as the survey sample. To achieve this, OLS regression and PSM (Propensity Score Matching) methods were used to identify the effectiveness of shadow education on students’ cognitive ability. Quantile regression was employed to analyze the heterogeneous effectiveness of shadow education on students at different quantiles of cognitive ability. The results indicated that shadow education can improve the cognitive ability of art majors. Especially for students who have not participated in shadow education at present, if they take part in shadow education, their cognitive ability will be improved better. Students with lower and higher levels of cognitive ability appeared to benefit more from shadow education than those with moderate levels.
