intergenerational mobility
Intergenerational mobility is that which compares your socio-economic status with that of your parents/previous family generations, whereas intragenerational mobility compares how your socio-economic status has changed over the course of your lifetime.
Intergenerational mobility refers to the social mobility that occurs from one generation to the next. It measures changes in social status, economic standing, or educational attainment between parents and their children. Positive intergenerational mobility happens when children achieve higher status than their parents, while negative mobility occurs when they achieve lower status. This concept is crucial for understanding the impact of socioeconomic factors on family dynamics and opportunities.
Intergenerational mobility
Social mobility refers to the movement of individuals or groups within a social hierarchy, often in terms of economic status or social class. Historically, social mobility has been limited by factors such as birthright, education, and economic opportunities. It can occur through intergenerational changes in status (intergenerational mobility) or within a person's lifetime (intragenerational mobility).
The US measures social mobility by looking at factors such as income inequality, education attainment, occupational mobility, and intergenerational mobility, which is the ability of individuals to move up or down the social and economic ladder compared to their parents. Researchers often use data on income mobility and educational achievement to track trends in social mobility over time.
Indicators of social mobility include income level, education attainment, and occupation. These factors are used to assess how individuals or families can move up or down the social ladder over time. A lack of intergenerational mobility can perpetuate inequality in society.
Intergenerational is an adjective.
