Abstract:
Cette thèse examine le rôle joué par les compétences cognitives et non cognitives dans les pays en développement, selon trois axes : la mesure de ces compétences, leurs rendements salariaux et les déterminants de la confiance interpersonnelle. Le premier chapitre utilise des données de panel provenant de deux cohortes d’individus récipiendaires d'un programme de formation des compétences au Mozambique. Le chapitre fait la comparaison entre deux types de mesures de ces compétences : auto-évaluations et observations d’exercices. Le chapitre montre que les auto-évaluations capturent les traits de

Non-cognitive skills are the centerpiece of this thesis which consists of two parts.

The measures of non-cognitive skills used in Parts I and II are attitude towards learning - a measure obtained by factor analysis using insights from the five-factor model of personality - and the Big Five personality traits, r
