Trends in the Socioeconomic Achievement of the University Educated: A Status Attainment Model Interpretation.
Goyder, John C.
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v10 n2 p21-38 1980
The contribution the sociologist's status attainment model makes towards comprehending reasons for the decline since the mid 1960s in the economic prospects of university graduates is examined. The hypothesis tested is that decline in background endowments accounts for the downward trend in the level of job obtained by graduates. (Author/MLW)
