The following table reports results from a linear probability model, where the dependent variable
is dummy measuring the probability of being enrolled in the academic track (upper secondary) at
the time of the interview. Dataset: Italian Labour Force Survey; Population of reference: Italian,
15-16 years of age. (source: Guetto, R., Panichella, N., 2018, Family Arrangements and
Inequality of Educational Opportunities. An Analysis of Social Inequality in Upper Secondary
School in Italy, work in progress). Comment results from the model

probability models: beta coefficients and confidence intervals at 95% on parentheses.
