In this working paper, Tina Baier, Torkild Lyngstad and co-authors investigate whether intergenerational transmission reflects within-family processes or social inheritance. Their findings suggest that the effects of the environmental processes characterized as “nurture” are explained less by parents’ specific behaviors and more by dynastic stratification in environments relevant to success in school.
