Cultuurdeelname en opleidingsverschillen in primaire relaties: De invloed van intergenerationele mobiliteit en gemengde huwelijken

Abstract: The relationship between education and cultural participation in primary relations: influences of intergenerational mobility and mixed marriages Those with a higher education visit more frequently concerts, monuments and museums. In order to predict the level of cultural participation, we consider besides the education of the respondent also the education of his/her father and partner. We assume that for individuals who are intergenerational mobile and have a mixed marriage with respect to their education. will take persons with a high education and a father and partner who have also a high education. as a positive point of reference in the process of adaptation. On basis of these predictions we answer the question what the consequences are of an increasing number of mixed marriages and more intergenerational mobility for the strength of the relationship between education and cultural participation. The ratio between the influence of one's own education, partner's education and father's education amounts to 3:2:1. The changes in the number of mixed marriages and patterns of mobility offered no explanation for the changes in the relationship between education and cultural participation between 1974 and 1983.
