Parents' Educational Expectations and Their Social-Psychological Patterning.
Raty, Hannu; Leinonen, Tuulia; Snellman, Leila
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v46 n2 p129-44 Jun 2002
Examined ways in which the educational position of parents organizes the association between their assessments of the competence of their children and their educational expectations for their children using groups of 126 academically educated and 375 vocationally educated parents. Findings suggest that the interpretations parents make of their children's competence can be regarded as social representations of educability that vary according to the educational position of the parent.
