Table 2. Relation between GTS and countries’ measures of development and gender equality.

Estimates from country-level linear regressions. The table shows the results of the regressions at the country-level of GTS on measures of development (GDP and HDI) and gender equality (GGI). GTS are defined by the gender gap in the answers of boys and girls to PISA question about their attribution of failure to lack of talent (“when I am failing, I am afraid that I might lack talent”), controlling for performance. Higher values of our explanatory variables correspond to higher development or higher equality. Definitions and data sources for measures of development and equality are more detailed in Supplementary Appendix A. ***P < 0.01, **P < 0.05, and *P < 0.1.
