Family Background and School Effects on Student Achievement: A Multilevel Analysis of the Coleman Data
by Spyros Konstantopoulos & Geoffrey Borman
This study reanalyzes the 12th grade data of the Coleman study and reexamines the effects of school characteristics on student achievement using multilevel models. Findings indicate considerable between-school variability in achievement, which suggests school effects. School resources and school composition were overall positive predictors of student achievement net of family background. School characteristics explained a substantial amount of the between-school variation in achievement.
