The Linkages among Family Structure, Self-Concept, Effort, and Performance on Mathematics Achievement of American High School Students by Race.
O'Conner, Sharon Anne; Miranda, Kathleen
American Secondary Education, v31 n1 p72-95 Fall 2002
Uses panel members (1,502 seniors) of the 1988 National Education Longitudinal Study to identify variables that produce high mathematics achievement. Finds, among other things, that the best predictor of student mathematics achievement is prior ability--regardless of race, gender, or from intact or nonintact households. (Contains 85 references.)
