Trends in perceived cost as a barrier to medical care, 1991-1996
OBJECTIVES: This study examined trends in perceived cost as a barrier to medical care. METHODS: The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System was used to analyze monthly telephone survey data from 45 states. RESULTS: Overall, the percentage of persons perceiving cost as a barrier to medical care increased from 1991 until early 1993 and then declined to baseline values in late 1996. Perceived cost was a greater barrier in 1996 than in 1991 for pe…

Cultural Capital, Student Achievement, and Educational Reproduction: The Case of Greece
This paper studies the role of cultural capital in the relationship between social background inequalities and educational attainment. Using data from a national sample of Greek high school seniors, we assess a model that cultural capital mediates the relationships of school success with family class position and socioeconomic status. While the analysis finds that both father's class position andfamily socioeconomic status determine a student's c…
The United States Working Class and Schooling
Class Formation, Politics, and Institutions: Schooling in the United States
Recent studies of education in the United States have explained schooling as a consequence of either capitalist class domination or class conflict. What is distinctive about the structure of U.S. schooling is its limited degree of stratification. The ways in whih class analyses have explained this pattern are reviewed critically. Class anlayses have failed because (1) they neglect the role of the political process in transforming class interests …

Educational Expansion and Economic Output in the United States, 1890-1969: A Production Function Analysis
Our research analyzes the effect of educational expansion on economic output in the United States from 1890 to 1969. In a departure from the individual-level inferences often used in prior research, we use an aggregate production function framework to estimate directly educational effects on economic output, net of labor and capital, the two basic factors of production. Using aggregate, time-series analyses, we find that expansion at the secondar…

Comparative Dependence and Economic Development
The studies of trade, then, can be summarized in the following way: (1) The intensity of trade has no systematic effect on the rate of economic growth. (2) The concentration of a country's exports in just a few commodities have the effect of reducing economic growth. (3) But the concentration of a country's exports in terms of their destination to a few other countries has no effect on the rate of economic growth. (4) The greater the export of ra…
Immigration and the Expansion of Schooling in the United States, 1890-1970
The authors examine the effects of immigration on the rate of growth of education in the United States from 1890 to 1970. The differences in the effect of various immigrant groups on educational growth over time are identified and the reasons for the negative or positive effects of varying immigrant groups on educational growth are discussed (ANNOTATION

Cross-National Evidence of the Effects of Foreign Investment and Aid on Economic Growth and Inequality: A Survey of Findings and a Reanalysis
As an outgrowth of dependency theories of national development, there have been a large number of cross-national empirical studies of the effects of foreign investment and aid on economic growth and inequality. This paper reviews these studies in order to discover what can be concluded about these relationships. Our strategy is as follows: First, we discuss the conceptualization of the four main variables at issue. Second, we discuss the differen…

The World Educational Revolution, 1950-1970
This paper's focus is on the extremely rapid expansion of educational enrollments that occurred throughout the world between 1950 and 1970. The universal expansion of education during this period led us to construct diffusion models and to explain this process as a consequence of the population characteristics of educational systems. Estimates of these models show that such a self-generating process explains much of the variation in educational e…

Structural Determinants of Student Political Activity: A Comparative Interpretation
The argument is advanced that the level of university student political activity in a society tends to reflect the degree to which the student social status is developed and formulated as a social type. In societies in which this position is incorborated centrally and is given a great deal of distinctive meaning, political activity will tend to be high. This is particularly true when the student status is normatively incorporated in, regulated by…
