Two other variables, academic achievement and significant others' influence, were studied as influential factors in students' post-high school destinations. The arguments were based on Hyman's class-differentiated value system, and Sewell's social-psychological model for educational attainment. The target sample was the Lebanese Armenian youth attending Armenian schools in Lebanon. The instrument used to collect the data was a 30-item questionnaire that was answered by 211 Lebanese Armenian eleventh grade students. Results of the stepwise regression analyses showed that socioeconomic status had some significant predictive power over students' educational aspirations and expectations. Reported academic achievement—mainly the official Brevet examination scores—and significant others' influence were also related to the subjects' post-high school plans UR - http://olibnew.haigazian.edu.lb/olibcgi?infile=details.glu&loid=59924&rs=113034&hitno=18 ER -
