在这篇文章中，我们使用了一个新的数据体系，即第二次马来西亚家庭生活调查(MFLS-2)，探索了父母和孩子教育之间的关系的证据，该调查包含了一个特定家庭中多达四代人的教育信息。这些数据使我们能够通过考察1910年至1980年出生人群的教育水平，来研究本世纪大部分时间马来西亚教育的传播情况。更重要的是，我们使用这些数据在序贯离散时间风险模型中研究父母教育对孩子在小学、中学和中学后的进步的影响，该模型允许未测量的家庭和个人特定因素之间的相关性。对于队列的一个子集，我们能够引入随时间变化的协变量来衡量家庭的经济状况、环境质量以及在做出给定决定时兄弟姐妹的组成。
In this paper we explore evidence concerning the relationship between parents' and children's education using a new body of data, the Second Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-2), which contains information on the education of as many as four generations within a given family. These data allow us to study the spread of education in Malaysia over much of this century by examining the educational attainment of birth cohorts from 1910 to 1980. More significantly, we use these data to study the effects of parental education on the progress of their children through elementary, secondary, and post-secondary school within a sequential discrete-time hazard model which allows for correlations among unmeasured family and individual-specific components. For a subset of the cohorts, we are able to introduce time-varying covariates to measure the family's economic circumstances, the quality of its environment, and the composition of the sibset at the time a given decision is made.
