q2 · i? · quant-synthesis · r?

The review identifies measurement issues raised across included reviews: students' limited knowledge of parental SES data, reflective versus formative measurement approaches, poverty threshold determination, measurement invariance across sub-populations, and missing data "when only one parent is present in families" (Willms & Tramonte, 2019).

"Additionally, compared to older students, young children are less able to indicate the education and profession of their parents accurately"
