LeTendre, Gerald K.; Rohlen, Thomas P.; Zeng, Kangmin – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 1998
Studied national educational datasets in Japan during the post-World War II era. Found that current datasets do not contain questions about family background or rank of school attended that are detailed enough to permit an analysis of the impact of family background on educational attainment. (SLD)
