Abstract | This study used a national sample of Mexican Americans to develop structural equation models of the effects of 4 eighth- grade latent variables on educational expectations 6 years later. Findings indicated that parents' influences had a strong positive effect on educational expectations at late adolescence. Parents' influence dominated effects of socioeconomic status, eighth-grade achievement test scores, and self-perceptions. These latent variables explained 41 percent of the variability in educational expectations. (Author/KB) |
