Nerovnosti při přechodu na osmileté gymnázium: panelová studie žáků pražských a středočeských škol

Úspěšnost školáků v přechodu na akademickou větev vzdělávání je determinována sociokulturním zázemím v rodině, což dokumentují výzkumné studie většinou až v pozdějších fázích vzdělávací trajektorie při přechodu na terciární stupeň. V českém prostředí byla dosud jen malá pozornost věnována přechodu mezi základní školou a víceletým gymnáziem, tj. na konci prvního stupně základní školní docházky. Naše studie se proto zaměřuje na roli kulturních faktor…

Trends in educational fluidity after the fall of socialism in the Czech Republic.

The aim of this paper is to identify the trends in educational fluidity after the fall of socialism in 1989 in the Czech Republic. The data are based on 27 sample surveys carried out from 1990 to 2009, including information on the child’s and his father’s education. The trends in educational fluidity are analysed both in view of the years and with respect to the birth cohorts, i.e. on the grounds of two effects: unequal educational odds (according to the socio-economic origin) and the “differentiation”…

Impact of Primary and Secondary Social Origin Factors on the Transition to University in the Czech Republic

The main objective of this paper is to show to what extent and why students with the same academic aptitude but different social backgrounds have different odds of entering university. For our analysis, we separated primary and secondary factors of social origin in the formation of educational inequalities (Boudon 1974). The results show that the primary and secondary factors have approximately the same influence on the transition to university. The Czech schools do not affect the process of forming educationa…

From Quantitative to Qualitative Differences: Testing MMI and EMI in the Czech Secondary School System in the First Decade of the 21st Century

This article examines secondary education in the Czech Republic between 2000 and 2010. We analyzed the consequences of educational expansion on odds to achieve secondary education with a school-leaving certificate (SLC) by social origin. We utilize the theories of maximally maintained inequality – MMI (Raftery & Hout, 1993) and effectively maintained inequality – EMI (Lucas, 2001). We analyzed data from PISA 2000 to 2009 for the Czech Republic. We support EMI theory against MMI. Quantitative (vertical) dif…

Vliv osobnostních, rodinných a sociálních faktorů na dosažené vzdělání a úroveň kompetencí

Tato kapitola se zabývá nejen nerovnostmi v šancích na dosažení vyššího vzdělání, vývojem vzdělanostní mobility, ale též vlivem sociálního původu a dosaženého vzdělání na úroveň kompetencí jedince. Výsledky provedených analýz potvrzují obecný trend poklesu podílu vzestupně mobilních a růstu podílu sestupně mobilních jedinců a prokazují, že v základních mobilitních vzorcích existují velké rozdíly mezi muži a ženami (vzestupnou mobilitou prošlo …

Educational Inequalities and Educational Mobility under Socialism in the Czech Republic

The sociology of education on the Czech Republic has focused almost entirely on relative measures of inequality (based on odds ratio data) than to trends in educational mobility (based on mobility tables). Therefore, there is a significant gap in our knowledge of how the Czech education system has evolved in the long term. Although the periods before and after the onset of socialism appear to have had very specific mobility patterns, we know relatively little about their differences. Therefore, this article at…

Kulturní a sociálně ekonomické zdroje nerovností v šancích na dosažení vysokoškolského vzdělání v České republice v letech 1948 - 1999

Tato stať si klade za cíl popsat současný trend ve vývoji nerovností v přístupu k terciárnímu vzdělání v České republice. Na základě znalostí o současných i předlistopadových politických a institucionálních reformách jsme nastolili hypotézu, podle které období stabilních nerovností za socialismu bylo vystřídáno obdobím rostoucích nerovností během post-komunistické transformace. Tato hypotéza byla potvrzena.The paper addresses the development of higher education in the Cz…

Alternative models of entrance exams and access to higher education: the case of the Czech Republic

The study compares the potential effects of a university admission exam model based on program-specific knowledge and an alternative model relying on general study aptitude (GSA) in the context of a strongly stratified educational system with considerable excess of demand over supply of university education. Using results of the Sonda Maturant 1998 survey, we show that in the specific context of the Czech Republic, displaying the above characteristics in the given period, an admission exam model based on gener…
