Abstract

Students’ access to family help with paying for college tuition and living expenses varies by family resources, structures, and relationships, and can affect later outcomes and the extent to which students rely on various forms of financial aid. This study analyzes an originally collected dataset at two regional public four-year universities in the United States (N=2,979) to examine how families and relationships are related to how students pay for college expenses. Differences in payment methods are examined by students’ family structure, including their cohabitation, marital, and parenthood status; family backgroun d including parents’ education, marital status and loan status; and relationships with families, including whether students liv ed with their families of origin, sentiments about asking parents for money, and closeness with parents. Differences by race, gender, age and region are also examined. Families helped 51% of students in the sample pay for college tuition, and almost 70% of students had family help with paying for living expenses. Payment methods for college differed by all variables examined. Potential explanations for findings related to inequalities in access to family financial resources, social norms about providing family help to certain types of students, and role expectations associated with family structure and age are discussed.

家庭、人际关系和支付大学学费
学生获得家庭帮助支付大学学费和生活费的机会因家庭资源、家庭结构和家庭关系而异,这可能会影响学生后来的成绩,也会影响学生对各种形式经济援助的依赖程度。本研究分析了美国两所地区性公立四年制大学(N= 2979)最初收集的数据集,以研究家庭和关系如何与学生支付大学费用有关。通过学生的家庭结构,包括他们的同居、婚姻和生育状况,来检验支付方式的差异;家庭背景,包括父母的教育程度、婚姻状况及贷款情况;以及与家庭的关系,包括学生是否与原籍家庭住在一起,向父母要钱的感受,以及与父母的亲密程度。种族、性别、年龄和地区的差异也会被检查。家庭帮助样本中51%的学生支付了大学学费,近70%的学生有家庭帮助支付生活费用。大学学费的支付方式因考察的所有变量而异。本文还讨论了与获得家庭经济资源的不平等、为某些类型的学生提供家庭帮助的社会规范以及与家庭结构和年龄相关的角色期望有关的研究结果的潜在解释。
