“…Lower socio-economic status (Blue & Cook, 2004;Cataldi, Laird & Kewal, Ramani, 2009;DeWitte, Cabus, Thyssen, Groot & van den Brink, 2013;Dorn, 1996;Ekstrom, Goertz, Pollack & Rock, 1986;Entwisle, Alexander & Steffel Olson, 2005;Ishitani & Snider, 2006;Ou & Reynolds, 2006;Teese & Walstab, 2002) and parents' low level of education (Eckstein & Wolpin, 1999) undoubtedly correlate with dropping out of school. In this research, there was a special group of students who were forced to take on the parental role due to unfavourable family circumstances (they had to work or were protecting one parent from the other's violence), which obstructed their education.…”

“…A large number of findings indicate that, regardless of the amount of time and effort invested in increasing educational equity, dropout rates are higher in students from poorer families (Blue & Cook, 2004;Cataldi, Laird & KewalRamani, 2009;DeWitte, Cabus, Thyssen, Groot & van den Brink, 2013;Dorn, 1996;Ekstrom, Goertz, Pollack & Rock, 1986;Entwisle, Alexander & Steffel Olson, 2005;Ishitani & Snider, 2006;Ou & Reynolds, 2006;Teese, & Walstab, 2002) and the families belonging to national minorities (Finn, 1989). The same trend can be expected in Serbia, since a smaller percentage of Roma children are included in both primary (Pešikan & Ivić, 2016) and early and pre-school education (UNICEF, 2014).…”

“…In addition, we control for family SES and neighborhood poverty early in life, variables important for explaining employment in urban areas (Wilson 1987). Since we know the roots of dropout extend back to children's school experiences in first grade (Alexander et al 2001;Ensminger and Slusarcick 1992), and that years of schooling can be predicted from age 6 data (see Caspi et al 1998;Entwisle, Alexander, and Olson 2005), we also control for the other social and personal assets children possess at age 6. These variables include parent psychological support, children's temperament/disposition, standardized test scores in reading and math, plus marks in reading and math.…”
