The Relationship between Social Capital and Educational Outcomes for Biological Children in Two-Parent Families: An Examination of "True" Family Structure Presented: New Orleans LA, Population Association of America Annual Meeting, April 2013 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Population Association of America Keyword(s): Educational Outcomes; Family Structure; Parent Supervision/Monitoring; Parent-Child Relationship/Closeness; Parent-School involvement; Social Capital Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This study examined how family structure moderates the relationship between social capital and educational outcomes for biological children in two-parent families. Importantly, family structure was defined by biological relationships to parents and siblings, thus many biological children were correctly classified as mutual children living in stepfamilies. Social capital and family structure were measured when participants were 12-14 years old, and a variety of educational outcomes were examined from high school completion through postsecondary degree completion. Social capital was measured as parental monitoring, parent-child relationship quality, and parent-school involvement. Findings were that mutual children in blended stepfamilies were less likely to complete a postsecondary degree than those in intact two-parent families. Living in a blended stepfamily also moderated the influence of parent-school involvement on the likelihood of completing a bachelor's degree, such that it was stronger for those in intact families. Issues of correct family structure classification are addressed. |

Pathways to Nonmarital Birth in Adolescence and Emerging Adulthood Presented: Boston MA, Population Association of America Annual Meeting, May 2014 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Population Association of America Keyword(s): Adolescent Fertility; Age at First Intercourse; Fertility; Modeling, Latent Class Analysis/Latent Transition Analysis; Parenting Skills/Styles; Sexual Behavior Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Using latent class analyses we examined pathways to nonmarital birth during adolescence and emerging adulthood. NLSY97 data for those who reported a nonmarital birth between 1997 and 2001 were included, and pathways were determined using dichotomous indicators of family structure, parenting style, risky sexual behavior, early first sex, drug use, delinquency, and high school completion. Results indicated three distinct pathways to nonmarital birth in the sample representing high-, medium-, and low-risk trajectories. Results will be discussed in terms of future research on nonmarital fertility in adolescent and emerging adult populations in the United States. |
