Ausmaß und Verteilung sozioökonomischer und migrationsspezifischer Ungleichheiten im Sprachstand fünfjähriger Kindergartenkinder

Extent and distribution of socio-economic and immigration-related inequalities in the language abilities of 5-year-old preschool children

Abstract

Inequalities in language competences may be more or less pronounced depending not only on the social or immigration background indicator under consideration, but can also differ in size when looking at different positions of the competence distribution.

Inequalities in language competences may be more or less pronounced depending not only on the social or immigration background indicator under consideration, but can also differ in size when looking at different positions of the competence distribution. Based on a nationwide sample of about 5-year-old preschool children this paper examines three research questions in this context: (1) To what extent are differences by social class, educational background, income, and immigrant background visible in children’s vocabulary? (2) Do certain patterns of inequality exist along the distribution of competences? (3) To what extent can these patterns be explained by cumulative effects? These questions were investigated using quantile regression on data from the National Educational Panel Study (NEPS). The results show that differences are most pronounced with regard to parents’ levels of formal education and their immigration background and concentrate in the lower areas of the competence distribution. In contrast, children of different socioeconomic and immigrant background differ only little in higher quantiles of language competences. These patterns remain largely intact when controlling for covariates.... view less

Ungleichheiten im sprachlichen Kompetenzstand können nicht nur in Abhängigkeit des jeweils betrachteten Indikators der sozioökonomischen und migrationsspezifischen Herkunft unterschiedlich groß ausfallen, sondern auch an unterschiedlichen Stellen der Kompetenzverteilung mehr oder weniger stark ausgeprägt sein. Dieser Beitrag untersucht dazu drei Forschungsfragen anhand einer bundesweiten Stichprobe von etwa fünfjährigen Kindergartenkindern: (1) In welchem Ausmaß zeigen sich Ungleichheiten im Wortschatz von Kindergartenkindern ent lang sozialer Klasse, Bildungshintergrund, Haushaltseinkommen und Migrations hintergrund? (2) Lassen sich bestimmte Muster von Ungleichheiten entlang der Kompetenzverteilung erkennen? (3) Inwiefern lassen sich etwaige Muster durch kumulative Effekte erklären? Diese Fragen werden mittels Quantilsregressionen anhand der Daten des Nationalen Bildungspanels (NEPS) analysiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Ungleichheiten nach Bildungs- und Migrationshintergrund am größten ausfallen und sich vor allem auf den unteren Bereich der Leistungsverteilung konzentrieren. Dagegen unterscheidet sich der Wortschatz insbesondere der kompetentesten Kinder nur gering in Abhängigkeit der sozialen und migrationsspezifischen Herkunft. Diese Muster bleiben auch unter Kontrolle von Kovariaten weitestgehend erhalten.... view less
