Abstract

<p>　 This paper focuses on ‘localism’ as perceived by high school students. When people refer to “articulation from high school to college”, they usually intend to refer to the educational relationship between the two types of institution. However, when looking at articulation-related issues from the perspective of high school students, there is also the possibility that “localism”, specifically the problem of choosing where they will live after graduation, is an important issue.</p><p>　 In the first place, the author demonstrates through the use of interview data that the concept in the minds of many high school students is that of ‘small localism’, and he goes on to provide backup for the interview data findings by means of quantitative analyses. Finally, he uses a structural equation model to show that the effects of educational aspirations on localism are as strong as the effects of localism on educational aspirations.</p><p>　 On the basis of these findings, we can say that there is a possibility that universalization of higher education may bring about a change in young people’s perception of localism, and it is important to bear this possibility in mind.</p>
