Participation rates in postsecondary education vary greatly by race, ethnicity, gender, and socioeconomic status (SES).

Nonis, Sarath A.; Hudson, Gail I. – Journal of Education for Business, 2010

This hypothesis was confirmed. Functional factors of personal/physical enhancement as well as activity enhancement were…

Xia, Nailing – RAND Corporation, 2010
There is considerable debate about the relative importance of family versus school factors in producing academic and nonacademic student outcomes, and whether and how their impacts vary across different student groups. In addition to critically reviewing and synthesizing earlier work, this study extends the literature by (a) using the ECLS-K, a…
