Abstract

Purpose – This study reexamines the debate about the possible influence of human capital on economic growth in Indonesia by using an analysis per educational age group.


Methods – This study uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model approach using data from 1970 – 2019.

Meanwhile, in secondary school enrollment, the positive effect only occurs in short-term conditions. In addition, higher education has the highest impact among the three variables.


Implication – The results of this study emphasize the importance of all aspects of education as a representation of human resources, especially using different age specifications.


Originality – This study contributes to modeling the effect of human capital per educational age group using the ARDL method.
