Popis: ment cross-nationally. The International Educational Achievement (IEA) studies produced large quantities of data. The hope was that these data would yield some understanding of the factors that affect educational outcomes and provide a basis for improving school performance. While much has been written about the IEA endeavor, little has been done to relate the IEA findings to societal characteristics. This article will attempt to do so. It will explore the relation of national school achievement with economic development, national communications systems, and national social and cultural indices.
