Description

The study in this article investigated factors that distinguish the increasing number of Latino students who continue their education beyond high school from the small and stable number who complete a baccalaureate degree. The sample included a cohort of 866 Latino men and women who participated in the National Educational Longitudinal Study (1988-2000) and had varying amounts of postsecondary education by the year 2000. The study employed educational, psychological, and familial predictor variables from 1990 when participants were sophomores in high school. Data were analyzed using a multinomial logistic regression and results indicated that several factors were significant in distinguishing those with some postsecondary education, no degree, from bachelor's completers. Parent support and locus of control were the two most significant predictors. Implications for school counselors are discussed. **********
