- W2316377881 abstract "I N MAKING studies of the city, the question is frequently raised as to the level of education of the population. This is particularly true of those researches which attempt comparisons among the various sections of the city. Many new insights into the ecological patterns have resulted from the use of decennial population data in census tract cities. However, one of the factors about which little is known is the educational level reached by persons living in the different parts of the city. Population data made available by the regular decennial enumerations give some information which has been employed as a measure of educational status. In the history of census taking questions on education have been asked since I 870. At first, the question on school attendance was tabulated in such a way as to reveal only the number of persons attending school with no differentiation as to age; illiteracy was defined as the inability to read and write English. Refinements of these two initial attempts to get at the educational status came with succeeding censuses. The data on school attendance fail to give a satisfactory index of the educational levels in a community since they include only the population from 5 to 20 years of age; further, a person is counted as attending school if he attends only one day during the seven months preceding the enumeration. However, these data do provide a fairly satisfactory indication of the interest in education by giving the number and proportion of children who attend school beyond the compulsory age limit. The data may provide something more than a measure of interest in education; they may give a rough measure of the age at which children leave school to begin earning a living. The most important reason why mere school attendance is an inadequate index is that it fails to tell us how far these persons have progressed in school. No light is thrown on such questions as: the number who have completed the eighth grade; the number who have completed high school; or the number who have completed some college work. Another approach to the educational level of a population is by means of the data on illiterates. Since illiterates, by census definition, can neither read nor write in any language, they may be considered as the lowest end" @default.
