The report attributes this finding to prior research in its definition of the Intergenerational Ties scale, part of the Parent and Community Partnerships: Student Views profile. The underlying studies are not described in this report, so the claim is second-hand.

"A high score indicates strong social ties in the community among parents, children and their friends. Research has shown that such "intergenerational ties" contribute positively to student learning."
