Abstract

This article aims to analyze the intergenerational mobility of education in Brazil considering the effects of coresidence decision between adult children and parents. The empirical analyses are based on complex survey data of Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílio (PNAD) of 1996 and a model of joint decision of coresidence and accumulation of human capital with self-selection of children according to their family position. The results suggest that the coefficients of educational persistence cannot be generalized due to sample selection bias. In addition, evidence of greater mobility was found for the group of coresident children with parents in adult life compared to children who are heads or spouses in the households surveyed.
