Response Bias in Reports of Father's Education and Socioeconomic Status Journal of the American Statistical Association 68,344 (December 1973): 816-820. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2284505 Cohort(s): Older Men, Young Men Publisher: American Statistical Association Keyword(s): Educational Attainment; Family Influences; Fathers, Influence; Intergenerational Patterns/Transmission; Socioeconomic Status (SES) This article compares independent interview responses of fathers and their sons to questions about the educational attainment and occupational status of the father. There is a high degree of congruence between the son's and father's estimates of both measures. When, however, reporting differences are regressed on various demographic characteristics reported by the son, the responses of youths with certain characteristics are found to deviate significantly from their fathers. |
