Abstract
En este artículo se analiza la evolución de la DOE a lo largo del siglo xx en España, incorporando más información sobre características personales y familiares de los estudiantes que en otros estudios. Esta aproximación permite controlar el posible sesgo de selección de los modelos de transiciones educativas, en los que muchos estudiantes van saliendo del análisis en las transiciones hacia niveles educativos superiores, haciendo que los resultados no sean extrapolables al conjunto de la población. Se ha utilizado una encuesta del CIS así como modelos de regresión logística. Controlando por dicho sesgo, se observa que la DOE permaneció constante, aunque también que la desigualdad disminuyó en el logro de la educación obligatoria entre las clases agrarias desde mitad de siglo, fruto posiblemente de la universalización de este nivel educativo.
This article analyses the evolution of inequality in educational opportunities over the 20th century in Spain, incorporating more information regarding students’ personal and family characteristics than in other studies. This approach allows us to control for possible selection bias in educational transition models, in which many students are left out of analyses as transitions are made to higher levels of education, leading to results that cannot be extrapolated to the general population. A survey from Spain’s Centre for Sociological Research (CIS) is used along with logistical regression models. Controlling for this bias, it is found that inequalities in educational opportunities have remained constant, although inequality in finishing obligatory education among agricultural classes decreased from the middle of the century, possibly the result of the universalisation of obligatory education.
