Abstract
This study examines the impact of formal collective negotiation of six levels of the teacher salary schedule in the absence of comprehensive bargaining legislation in the State of Illinois. The results of the regression analysis indicate a significant positive relationship between collective negotiations and teacher salary levels with salary differentials of 1.3 to 4.5 per cent between bargaining and nonbargaining districts attributable to negotiating activity.This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License.
