96 CHAPTER 3 What PISA shows that 15-year-olds can do: a profile of student performance in mathematical and scientific literacy 11. Cumulative expenditure for a given country is approximated as follows: let n(0), n(1) and n(2) be the typical number of years spent by a student from the beginning of primary education up to the age of 15 years in primary, lower secondary and upper secondary education. Let E(0), E(1) and E(2) be the annual expenditure per student in U.S dollars converted using purchasing power parities in primary, lower secondary and upper secondary education, respectively. The cumulative expenditure is then calculated by multiplying current annual expenditure E by the typical duration of study n for each level of education i using the following formula: 2 CE = n(i)* E(i) i=0 Estimates for n(i) are based on the International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) (OECD, 1997). 12. The correlation for the overall relationship is Taken separately, the correlation is 0.44 for the combined reading literacy scale, 0.47 for the mathematical literacy scale and 0.29 for the scientific literacy scale. 96
