Abstract

Este artículo aborda la influencia de la educación superior y el estatus socioeconómico parental sobre la probabilidad de que la descendencia tenga un destino socioeconómico alto en tres áreas de residencia de México: Región Sur, Ciudad de México y Nuevo León. Estimando un modelo probit estructural con variables instrumentales (y con datos de dos encuestas ESRU-EMOVI), encontramos que la educación superior incrementa la probabilidad de un individuo de posicionarse en el tercer tercil de bienestar y que los premios en probabilidad asociados a la educación van en oposición a la reproducción social. Nuestros resultados rechazan lo que llamamos “hipótesis del preparatoriano suertudo”. En Nuevo León, las probabilidades de un destino alto son mayores que en la Ciudad de México o la Región Sur. Sin embargo, en Nuevo León, los premios en probabilidad asociados a la educación superior son menores que en la Ciudad de México o en el sur y muestran una pequeña dependencia del origen socioeconómico, y por tanto menor reproducción social. En oposición, los premios en probabilidad asociados a la educación superior son mayores en el sur.
