Preferred term

parental human capital and education  

Definition(s)

  • Parental human capital—usually defined by social scientists in terms of educational attainment, income, occupational prestige, and/or wealth—is inextricably linked to children's educational outcomes. There is no debate as to whether greater levels of parental human capital are linked to more favorable outcomes for children; rather, researchers examine the magnitude of the effects and the mechanisms through which parents transmit advantages or disadvantages to their children.
