The Influence of Equitable Treatment on Latina/o High School Students' College Aspirations
Taggart, Amanda; Paschal, Jaimi
Journal of Latinos and Education, v18 n4 p316-327 2019
This study examined the influence of equitable treatment on Latina/o students' college aspirations. Logistic regression was used to identify variables associated with Latina/o high school students' aspirations to attend college within the context of theory concerning the college search, choice, and enrollment processes. Data were drawn from a nationally representative sample of Latina/o students in the ELS:2002 dataset. Results indicated that Latina/o students were more likely to aspire to attend college if they perceived equitable treatment for different groups of students during high school.
