The research being proposed will employ two data bases to study the impact of various components of family environment (generally corresponding to indivisible human capital inputs and divisible social capital inputs) on several different dimensions of family well-being. Two interrelated studies are proposed. This first study is an individual research project that will employ an underutilized sibling data base from the High School and Beyond study to examine family effects on elements of child well-being measured during and shortly after the high school years (late adolescence). The individual project is sufficiently detailed that it can also form the basis for group research if so determined. The second study is a group project that will employ sibling data from the National Longitudinal Study of Youth to examine the impact of family environment on child well-being during early to middle childhood among children born to adolescent mothers. Both projects will make use of LISREL (or LISREL-like models) to estimate models of sibling resemblance in child well-being. These models provide estimates of both between and within family regression slopes, adjust for measurement error and allow comparison of important sub-groups. With respect to the individual research project, several specific aims will be pursued: (l) Specific aim #l seeks to replicate prior research on the potentially biasing effect of family environment when occupational status and earnings are regressed on schooling. (2) Specific aim #2 constitutes a search for a better specification of family environment using the richness of the data in the HSB sibling file, (3) Specific aim #3 seeks to test a causal model of educational attainment using sibling data. In specifying this model, it will be possible to test for the presence of family bias in a number of intermediate outcomes such as grades. (4) Specific aim #4 seeks to elaborate the role of family environment in the development of life course and educational expectations and values in children.

拟议的研究将使用两个数据库来研究影响 家庭环境的各个组成部分（通常对应于 不可分割的人力资本投入和可分割的社会资本投入） 家庭幸福感的几个不同维度。 两个相互关联的 提出了研究。 第一项研究是一个个人研究项目 将使用高中未充分利用的兄弟姐妹数据库 以及超越研究，探讨家庭对儿童福祉要素的影响 在高中期间和高中结束后不久进行测量（晚 青春期）。 单个项目足够详细，可以 如果确定的话，也可以构成小组研究的基础。 第二次研究 是一个小组项目，将采用来自国家的兄弟数据 青少年纵向研究，探讨家庭环境对青少年的影响 出生的儿童在童年早期至中期的儿童福祉 青春期的母亲。 这两个项目都将利用 LISREL（或类似 LISREL 模型）来估计儿童福祉中​​兄弟姐妹相似性的模型。 这些模型提供了家庭之间和家庭内部的估计 回归斜率，调整测量误差并允许比较 重要的子群体。 对于个别研究项目，有几个具体目标 将追究： (l) 具体目标 #l 力求复制先前关于潜在的研究 家庭环境对职业地位和收入的偏向影响 在学校教育方面出现倒退。 (2) 具体目标#2 是寻找更好的规范 家庭环境使用 HSB 同级文件中丰富的数据， (3) 具体目标#3旨在测试教育程度的因果模型 使用兄弟数据。 在指定该模型时，可以测试 一些中间结果中存在家庭偏见，例如 作为成绩。 (4) 具体目标 #4 旨在阐述家庭环境在 生命历程的发展以及教育期望和价值观 孩子们。
