Family background, academic achievement, and educational aspirations as predictors of Australian young adults' educational attainment.

Kevin Marjoribanks1.   

Abstract

Relations were examined between family background, adolescents' academic achievement, aspirations, and young adults' educational attainment. Data were analyzed from the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (4,500 men, 4,804 women; M age = 20.1 yr., SD = 0.4). Multistage regression analyses indicated that, while family background and academic achievement measures had medium associations with attainment, adolescents' educational aspirations made a large independent contribution to explaining differences in young adults' education attainment.
