  • This paper examines re-enrollment decisions taken by adults who have previously participated in the labor market in the US. We investigate the influence of social origin on re-enrollment and test hypotheses based on the "status reproduction" argument. We find that young adults from the lower classes re-enroll less often than those from the upper classes and that these differences can be attributed to a large extend to different ability or performance. Beyond the effects of social origin as such, we also scrutinize the effects of the child's class position relative to family status as a more direct implication of the "status reproduction" argument. Our analyses reveal that once young adults from higher status positions have reached their parents' class, re-enrollment is somewhat less likely to occur. However, this effect of the child's relative class to the parents' is rather weak. (xsd:string)
