Whilst we’ve been unable to track down the research that Garth refers to at 45.50, here are three similar studies which may be of interest:
- An article on for-proft/non-profit differences in child care: The nonprofit advantage: Producing quality in thick and thin child care markets (Cleveland, 2009, Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, Wiley Online Library)
- Some limited support for the same conclusions in the nursing industry here: Consumer information and competition between nonprofit and for-profit nursing homes (Hirth, 1999)
- A similar US study of for-proft/non-profit, with similar findings: Differences between Non-Profits and For-Profits in the Hospice Industry: Patient Selection and Quality (Ohri, 2007)
