Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract:  While previous research has noted the significant linkages between familial context and the status aspirations of children, comparatively few have attempted to examine the same associations with the status attainments of young adults. Using data from the National Education Longitudinal Study (1988-2000), this study examines the complex nature of familial context as it affects the educational and occupational outcomes of Asian-American, Hispanic, African-American, and white young adults. Effects such as parental educational attainment are found across all four groups, while ethnic group-specific traits, such as the use of another (non-English) language are more salient predictors among Asian-American and Hispanic young adults. The implications of these findings are discussed.
