教育社会学视角下考研个案动因分析

Analysis of the Motivation of Postgraduate Examination Cases Based on the Perspective of Educational Sociology

随着毛入学率的攀升,我国高等教育已步入普及化阶段,同时,自研究生招生制度恢复以来,我国硕士研究生招生规模也在持续上升,然而两者的扩招仍比不上考研热的增速。本文在教育社会学的视角下,通过从微观层面对大学生考研进行个案分析,发现大学生考研的动因主要涉及文化资本积累、社会阶层流动、教育代际传递、文凭贬值影响、教育机会平等方面的因素。

With the climb of gross enrollment rate, China’s higher education has entered the stage of popularization, and at the same time, since the restoration of the graduate enrollment system, the scale of master’s student enrollment in China has also continued to rise, but the expansion of the two is still not as fast as the growth rate of postgraduate entrance examination. From the perspective of the sociology of education, this paper analyzes the case studies of college students from the micro level, and finds that the motives of college students mainly involve cultural capital accumulation, social class mobility, intergenerational transmission of education, the impact of diploma depreciation, and equality of educational opportunities.
