本文探讨了教育期望在教育获得过程中的作用。我们利用来自各种数据集的数据来记录和分析20世纪70年代中期至21世纪初的教育期望趋势。我们专注于种族/民族和社会经济群体的差异,并研究年轻人如何在高中及以后更新他们的期望。结果表明,所有学生的期望值都有所提高,其中女青年的期望值提高最多。在过去几十年里,期望值对成绩的预测性有所下降,但期望值仍然是对成绩的强有力预测,其作用超过了学校教育的其他标准决定因素。有趣的是,数据显示,大多数(约60%)学生在八年级和高中后八年之间至少更新一次他们的期望。更新似乎是基于,在一定程度上,对学术能力的新信息的收购。
This paper examines the role of educational expectations in the educational attainment process. We utilize data from a variety of datasets to document and analyze the trends in educational expectations between the mid-1970s and the early 2000s. We focus on differences across racial/ethnic and socioeconomic groups and examine how young people update their expectations during high school and beyond. The results indicate that expectations rose for all students with the greatest increases among young women. Expectations have become somewhat less predictive of attainment over the past several decades but expectations remain strong predictors of attainment above and beyond other standard determinants of schooling. Interestingly, the data demonstrate that the majority (about 60 percent) of students update their expectations at least once between eighth grade and eight years post-high school. Updating appears to be based, in part, on the acquisition of new information about academic ability.
