Isi artikel

The aim of this article is to determine the extent to which individual, family and contextual resources influence the school adjustment of 16 year old teenagers and to investigate their consequent adult attainments at age 33. Adopting a longitudinal perspective, the experiences of more than 9,000 socially advantaged and disadvantage young people are comapred. The study shows that socio economic adversity is a significant risk factor for educational failure and that it influences consequent adjustment in work and health related outcomes. Various social psychplogical factors can counterbalance such adversity. In particular, parental educational aspirations for their child are significantly associated with educational resilience among less privileged individuals. The study confirms th elong term stability of secondary school adjustment. It is concluded that the factors and processes that modify the impact of adversity are context specific and that their influencs have to be studied in the context in which they operate.
