CARVALHO, Cynthia Paes de e RAMOS, Maria Elizabete Neves. RELIGION AND SCHOOLING SUCCESS AT THE MUNICIPAL SCHOOL SYSTEM OF RIO DE JANEIRO. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2017, vol.33, e162025. Epub 08-Jul-2017. ISSN 1982-6621. https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698162025.
The paper presents research results about the relation between family belonging to a religious group and the schooling success or failure revealed by student age-grade discrepancy. We have analyzed information from the official register of the students who attended the municipal elementary school system of Rio de Janeiro, filled by parents during their enrollment in the system in 2011. We have used a logistic regression model to investigate to what extent the effect of belonging to a certain religious group influences the possibilities for the student to be belated. The results indicated a statistically significant association between family religion and the schooling discrepancy. We have discussed as well other characteristics and family practices, correlated to the belonging to a certain religious denomination that might promote a successful schooling.
