Abstract

Este artigo estima a eficiência técnica relativa dos municípios brasileiros na educação pública por meio da técnica DEA, aliada a regressões tobit e com o auxílio de métodos de reamostragem. O método jackstrap possibilitou chegar a escores de eficiência robustos, enquanto o bootstrap viabilizou estimar o viés destes índices. Com efeito, estimativas kernel das densidades evidenciaram alterações notáveis na distribuição da eficiência. A análise econométrica contou com o algoritmo que corrige a correlação serial dos escores. Conforme esperado, os fatores ambientais alteram de maneira relevante a dispersão da eficiência no Brasil. Em um passo final, foram implementados testes de comparação de grupos baseados em informações referentes a certas práticas de gestão na área da educação pública. This paper estimates the relative technical efficiency of Brazilian municipalities in the public education using the DEA model along with tobit regressions with the aid of resampling methods. The jackstrap method enabled the estimation of robust efficiency scores, while the bootstrap allowed the estimation of the bias in those indexes. In effect, kernel density estimates portray remarkable changes in the distribution of efficiency. The econometric analysis relied upon the algorithm which corrects the serial correlation in the scores. It is noteworthy how accounting for environmental factors alters the dispersion of efficiency in Brazil. In a final step, we implement group comparisons tests based on information relative to certain management practices in the area of public education.
