VOSS, Rita Ribeiro. Aspectos sociocognitivos do fracasso escolar. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2014, vol.48, n.34, pp.165-189. ISSN 1981-1802. https://doi.org/10.5238/2015v48i340008.
The government's statistics on basic education correlation social origin and poor school performance. Four conceptions determine the research on the subject, which is not enough to understand it in its complexity: "social conception", "psychological conception", "microstructural conception" and "instructional conception". In the interdisciplinary perspective, the symbolic goods mediate the cognitive processes and social environment. However, the society transforms such access in ability to make abstractions. For the children from the popular classes, this process takes place mainly in the school that obstructs the free flow of the symbolic goods, becoming the locus of "evasion of knowledge" and the main promoter of social inequalities in Brazil.
