An Ecological Perspective of Science and Math Academic Achievement Among African American Students by Endya Bentley Stewart PDF Summary

Book Description: Using data from the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88), path analytic procedures were performed to test an ecological model of the effects of family, individual and school characteristics on the academic achievement of African American students. A distinctive feature of this study is the inclusion of school computer use in the model. The study results show that several of the family influence variables directly or indirectly affected 12th grade academic achievement. Furthermore, most of the individual influence variables were directly related to 12th grade achievement. Two surprising findings from this study were the insignificant effects of family income and school computer use on 12th grade achievement. Overall, the findings support the notion that family, individual, and school characteristics are important predictors of academic success among African American students.
