Test scores are included from the following programs: TIMSS/PIRLS, PISA, PISA+TIMSS/PIRLS, SACMEQ, PASEC, LLECE, PILNA, EGRA, and EGRANR. The methodology is detailed in Patrinos and Angrist (2018), Global Dataset on Education Quality: A Review and Update (2000-2017). Name in source: Harmonized Test Scores.
