摘要:

通过分析十年历时调查数据,本文探讨了大学生毕业意向的影响因素和时代变迁规律。研究表明,学业表现、家庭背景和宏观环境对大学生升学意愿均有显著影响,个体学业表现的作用最为微弱,家庭背景的优势主要体现在国外留学选择上,在毕业规划方面宏观环境起着重要作用。通过交互分析发现,家庭背景对选择深造,尤其是留学的作用会随着学业表现提高而增强;十年中,家庭背景主导作用和学业表现微弱作用均保持相对稳定。宏观层次的研究生教育自费政策对当年大学生深造意向有显著负向影响,而高校毕业生增长趋势对个体深造意向有显著正向作用。本文证实了“大学教育后”教育机会分配仍然体现的是一种社会再生产逻辑,中国过去十年高等教育领域的转型背景对个体的毕业规划也产生了重要影响。本文有助于完整理解十年来大学生毕业意向的变化轨迹和规律,以及接受高等教育后的教育分层。

Abstract:

Most existing studies on educational stratification focus mainly on social stratification prior to the entry of higher education. Little attention is paid to the stratification process that continues during college education. This study investigates the factors impacting graduation plans of undergraduates at a Beijing key university during a ten-year period from 2007 to 2016. Findings show that post-graduation choices are positively influenced by academic performance, family background and macrosocial factors:(1) Academic performance is the weakest link in predicting a student's decision to pursue graduate study; (2) Family background has a decisive impact on pursuing graduate study abroad, much more significant than academic performance or macrosocial factors; (3) Macrosocial factors are an important predictor for graduates' career plans.A series of interaction analysis between core independent variables yields conclusion that the impact of family background in choosing graduate education, especially study abroad, increases when academic performance scores high. The findings on family background and academic performance constitute a consistent trend for the ten-year period. The 2013 Graduate Education Tuition Reform Policy increased tuition fees for graduate study and the enrolment suffered that year. By the same token, the fast-increasing number of college graduates encourages further graduate study as a way of postponing job seeking. In sum, this study strongly confirms that the distribution of post baccalaureate education opportunities reflects the reproduction of social stratification. At the same time, the transitional nature of Chinese higher education during the past decade also has an important impact on individual graduation planning.
