Abstract
Mean years of schooling (MYS) is one of the indicators measuring the quality of education in Indonesia, regulated through the nine-year compulsory education policy. West Kalimantan Province is one of the provinces with the lowest MYS rates in Indonesia, with only one out of its 13 districts/cities fulfilling the compulsory education policy. Therefore, research is needed to obtain the best model and understand the factors that influence the MYS districts/cities of West Kalimantan Province. This study uses the Geographically Weighted Panel Regression (GWPR) analysis method, due to the annual changes in MYS numbers indicating time effects in data and differences in MYS numbers in each district/city indicating differences in characteristics between regions. GWPR is a combination of panel data regression model and geographically weighted regression (GWR) model. The results showed that the best model obtained is the GWPR adaptive bisquare model with an AIC value of -147.241 and R2 value of 80.07%. The variables of per capita income, dependency ratio, literacy rate, and the number of schools significantly influence MYS, and four groups of regions are formed based on significant variables.
