Influências socioculturais na escolaridade de conscritos

The article describes a survey carried out by the authors, in Ribeirão Preto, aiming at comparing the parent schooling levels of the recruits (conscritos) belonging to the cohort (population) of the newly borns between 1978/1979 and to evaluate the relation between the families' socioeconomic and cultural condition and their kid's development in school. Among the cohort boys, 2.847 were located in the military service and 1.336 were interviewed. It was noticed that while 60.6% of the recruits concluded elementary education, 47.1% of the parents had. The group classified as coming from the poor/low mid-classes, denominated by the survey as P, presented the lower schooling levels, the greater use of public night schools. The authors concluded that the kids reached higher schooling levels than their fathers (61.8%) and mothers (58,0%). It was also noticed that access to school improved. The dropout problem, however, continued being a serious matter. However, the work factor is not the only one, nor the most expressive factor responsible for such dropout levels
