| Popis: |
This chapter uses multi-group structural equation models to investigate how the mediators between divorce and school engagement differ according to parents’ educational level. Previous studies have failed to address which processes underlie this potential moderating role of parents’ educational level and have reported conflicting results. Based on the Leuven Adolescent and Family Study data (N = 7035), our results show that children with lower educated parents are more negatively affected by divorce than children of highly educated parents and that this result cannot be explained by the lower availability of family resources in the group of children with lowly educated parents, whereas family resources are important mediators for children with medium and highly educated parents. Overall, the findings provide more nuanced evidence on how the experience of divorce varies between children of different socioeconomic backgrounds. |
