Family Influences on the Social Participation of Youth: The Effects of Parental Social Involvement and Farming.
Chan, Christopher G.; Elder, Glen H., Jr.
Rural Sociology, v66 n1 p22-42 Mar 2001
Analysis of data from the Iowa Youth and Families Project establishes that parents' social involvement is a source of social capital for their children. Rural children's connection to a civic culture and their involvement in community groups are encouraged by parental social participation and further enhanced by parents' ties to farming.
