主题The Tension between Money and Culture: Inequality, Economic Capital, Cultural Capital and High School Students’ Educational Achievement


系列:浙江大学马寅初社会学讲座第5讲

 

时间:11月18日(周五)14:00-15:30(北京时间)

 

概要This study examines how social context, in this case, income inequality, shapes the role of economic capital and cultural capital in adolescents’ academic performance in high schools. First, we explore how national-level income inequality moderates the effects of economic capital and cultural capital on academic achievement. Second, we examine whether income inequality moderates the interaction term between economic capital and cultural capital. By analyzing a multilevel dataset of 72 countries or regions, a combination of PISA 2018 data and several national indexes, we find that: (1) economic capital plays a more important role in enhancing adolescents’ academic achievement in more unequal societies than equal ones, while the effect of cultural capital decrease with the increase of inequality; (2) In countries or regions with lower levels of inequality, cultural capital’s positive effect on academic achievement tends to be stronger for students with low-economic capital; By contrast, cultural capital’s effect tends to be stronger for students with high-economic capital in more unequal countries. The results indicate that the cultural mobility model applies to equal countries, while the cultural reproduction model applies to countries with higher levels of inequality. The findings shed new light on understanding how social context shapes the process that economic capital and cultural capital contribute to intergenerational education reproduction from a comparative perspective.
