@article{parcel_hendrix_2014, title={Family transmission of social and cultural capital}, DOI={10.1002/9781118374085.ch18}, abstractNote={Families have differential access to social and cultural capital, and also make differing decisions regarding investment in children. These forces have intergenerational consequences. Capital resources diffuse more finely in larger families, and combinations of social and cultural resources may either exacerbate or ameliorate inequality. There is support for this model not only in the United States, but also more globally. Both social and cultural capital boost academic achievement; both forms of capital reduce the likelihood of behavior problems and/or delinquency. Parents influence the educational resources that children can access beginning with verbal interaction at home and continuing with their construction of children's home environments, their choices of household location, and parental work schedules. These and related processes are class bound and reproduce inequality. We need more research to determine how social and cultural resources combine across the life course and whether and what interventions in family investment are effective.}, journal={Wiley blackwell companion to the sociology of families}, author={Parcel, T.

Combining insights from family sociology and criminology, we evaluate the effects of household work arrangements on family processes and delinquency among a national sample of 10- to 17-year-old children. We find that children from households where both parents work nonstandard hours report weaker levels of family bonding, which in turn is associated with greater delinquency. Children from single-mother households in which the mother works evening or night shifts report weaker levels of parent–child closeness and family bonding, which fully mediate the association with greater delinquency. We also find that select maternal nonstandard schedules in conjunction with paternal standard schedules are associated with lower delinquency among children. We derive implications for parental work schedules in households with adolescents.}, number={10}, journal={JOURNAL OF FAMILY ISSUES}, author={Hendrix, Joshua A. and Parcel, Toby L.}, year={2014}, month={Aug}, pages={1363–1393} }
