Children's Progress through School: A Research Note.
Bianchi, Suzanne M.
Sociology of Education, v57 n3 p184-92 Jul 1984

One important exception is that the probability of enrollment below modal grade is much higher for Hispanic children living in single-parent households than for those in two-parent households.
