• Emerging Adulthood as a Critical Stage in the Life Course (2018, background): “Students from poor families that have high self-efficacy and a similar concept of hope for educational attainment do equally as well in school as their higher SES peers (Osgood et al. 2005).”
• Differentiation in Self-Perceived Adulthood: Extending the Confluence Model of Subjective Age Identity (2007, background): “…lower socioeconomic backgrounds experience more accelerated transitions into these adult roles (Buchmann 1989; Cohen et al. 2003; Goldscheider and Goldscheider 1999; Osgood et al. 2005), they should also be more likely to see themselves as adults, compared to those from more privileged backgrounds.”
