Abstract
⺠A weak negative relation between literacy and age is observed in cross-section data ⺠This relationship arises from a combination of offsetting ageing and cohort effects ⺠Literacy declines with age at a rate greater than estimated with cross-section data ⺠More recent birth cohorts leave school with lower levels of literacy ⺠All three countries show these patterns
