Research Abstract

In order to clarify mechanisms of intergenerational reproduction of poverty and low income, we analyzed data set of "Survey of parent-child daily opinion and attitude" by Japanese Cabinet Office and "National Family Research of Japan" by Japan Society of Family Sociology quantitatively. From the analysis of "Survey of parent-child daily opinion and attitude", we found children of single parent family (all of them are 3rd grade of junior high school) had low educational aspiration, low educational achievement and didn't have enough time to study. This tendency was evident for children of single father household. Multivariate analysis showed that disadvantage among children of single mother household was explained by their low income, but those of single father household was not explained by income. Parent-child relationship of shingle father household showed generally weak and was suggested that children are left to do as they like.
