| Abstract | This study examined the relationships between students' academic achievement, income level, and ethnicity using aggregate school 3rd and 6th grade Iowa Test of Basic Skills scores for 1999 and 2000, 4th grade Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL) scores for 1999 and 2000, and 7th grade WASL scores for 1999 for all schools in Washington state. Data analysis indicated that low income explained a much larger percentage of the variance in academic achievement than did ethnicity. Ethnicity explained between 0-6 percent of the variance in academic achievement, after controlling for the contribution of low income. Low income, by contrast, explained between 12-29 percent of the variance in academic achievement. Combined with the finding that ethnicity explains approximately 32.7 percent of the variance in low income, the results suggest that the relationship between ethnicity and academic achievement is mostly indirect. Ethnicity relates to low income, and low income in turn relates to academic achievement. (Contains 14 references.) (SM) |
