Abstract

Using 1981-1982 data on the 44 public community colleges in Québec (collèges d’enseignement général et professionnel), this study examines relationships between the amount of expenditures and two groups of explanatory variables. The first group is made up of variables measuring different aspects of the product of teaching activities; the second includes variables describing local conditions. À l’aide de données de 1981-1982 sur les 44 collèges publics d’enseignement général et professionnel du Québec (cégeps), nous avons examiné les relations entre les dépenses, totales et pour certains sous-totaux, et deux groupes de variables explicatives. Le premier groupe est constitué de variables qui mesurent différents aspects du produit de l’activité d’enseignement; le second comprend des variables qui décrivent les conditions locales.
