Abstract
Using a sample of 11,313 students in Grades 7 and 9 from the China Education Panel Survey, this study examines the effects of family social capital and family cultural capital on adolescents’ educational outcomes in the areas of academic effort, educational aspiration, and academic achievement. The results from structural equation modeling analyses showed that family social capital and family cultural capital had significant positive associations with adolescents’ educational aspirations. However, only family cultural capital had a significant positive association with academic effort, while family social capital showed a non-significant negative association, and both forms of family capital had significant negative associations with academic achievement.
