- W58806809 abstract "Judging from the abundant and expanding literature on educational inequalities, the apparent consensusis that divergent educational outcomes of individuals can be explained by two main mechanisms: classspecificdifferences in children’s skills (primary effects) and educational choices, net of skills(secondary effects). Contrary to the widespread agreement that primary effects stem from differences inparental tangible and cultural resources and that secondary effects result from decisions made based onclass-specific constraints, we contend that parents across social classes invest in their childrendifferently for equivalent levels of children’s perceived skills—thus, primary effects and secondaryeffects work in similar ways. Formulating a rational-choice model of primary effects, we hypothesizethat parental investments in children’s skills during the early stages of their life course are stratifiedaccording to the combined effects of relative risk aversion and cumulative advantage. Using data fromthe German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) and controlling for parental resources, we tested thishypothesis by asking whether mothers spend more or less time engaged in cognitively stimulatingactivities with their preschool children at age 5 to 6 depending on the child’s observed past languageskills and the parents’ social class. Ordinary least squares estimates suggest that mothers’ activities withtheir children not only are stratified across social classes but also reflect a class-specific reaction tochildren’s observed past ability consistent with our assumed mechanisms. Lower-class mothers investin cognitively stimulating activities in a selective way: the higher the perceived ability of the child, themore effort is invested in these activities; in contrast, higher-class mothers do not differentiate theirinvestment according to their child’s observed ability. Level of maternal education and extent of childcare support in the household have an additional positive impact on levels of activity. Implications ofthe results and possible extensions of the model are discussed." @default.
