SIBLING RESEMBLANCE MODELS OF CHILD WELL-BEING

拟议中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不可分割的社会资本投入) 家庭幸福的几个不同维度。两个相互关联的 提出了研究建议。第一项研究是个人研究项目。 这将使用一个未得到充分利用的高中兄弟姐妹数据库 并超越研究，以考察家庭对儿童幸福因素的影响 在高中期间和之后不久(晚些时候)测量 青春期)。单个项目足够详细，因此它可以 也构成了小组研究的基础，如果这样确定的话。第二项研究 是一个小组项目，将使用来自国家 青少年纵向研究考察家庭环境对青少年的影响 出生于儿童的儿童在童年早期至中期的儿童幸福感 青春期母亲。这两个项目都将使用LISREL(或类似LISREL 模型)来估计儿童幸福感中兄弟姐妹相似的模型。 这些模型提供了对家庭之间和家庭内部的估计 回归斜率，根据测量误差进行调整，并允许比较 重要的子组。 关于个人研究项目，有几个具体目标 将采取以下措施： (L)具体目标#L寻求复制先前对潜在的 职业地位和收入对家庭环境的偏向效应 是学校教育的倒退。 (2)具体目标#2构成了对更好的规范的探索 使用HSB兄弟文件中数据的丰富性的家庭环境， (3)具体目标3旨在测试教育程度的因果模型 使用同级数据。在指定此模型时，将可能测试 在一些中间结果中存在家庭偏见，如 作为成绩。 (4)具体目标4试图阐述家庭环境在以下方面的作用 生命历程的发展与教育期待与价值取向 孩子们。

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.
