Determinants of intergenerational social mobility were examined in 8287 men from the British Cohort Study 1970.

Locus of control and childhood behaviour disturbance…

Deary, Ian J.; Taylor, Michelle D.; Hart, Carole L.; Wilson, Valerie; Smith, George Davey; Blane, David; Starr, John M. – Intelligence, 2005
We examined the influences of childhood social background, childhood cognitive ability, and education on intergenerational social mobility and social status attainment at midlife. The subjects were men born in 1921 and who participated in the Scottish Mental Survey of 1932 and thereafter in the Midspan Collaborative study in Scotland between 1970…
