Abstract
Despite studies emphasizing the economic and social benefits of achieving basic skills, the association between academic achievement standards (AAS) and civic and social engagement (CSE) remains underexplored. This study uses nationwide longitudinal survey data from Korea to examine whether high school students who met AAS exhibit increased CSE in adulthood. Findings indicate that meeting certain AAS levels correlates with greater CSE, though the threshold varies by subject; young adults who attained the Proficient level in reading or the Basic level in mathematics present higher CSE. These results highlight the importance of setting and ensuring adequate AAS thresholds to foster citizenship.
