Impact of divorce on their children's education
 Kostelecká, Veronika ; Hamplová, Dana (advisor) ; Dudová, Radka (referee)
This thesis focuses on the impact of parental divorce on children's educational attainment. Education level is considered to be an important predictor for life trajectories. Divorce, on the other hand, impairs the stability of the former family unit and worsens the situation of households and their members. Children are negatively emotionally and mentally affected by these changes. They show externalizing behavioural problems, and their future romantic relationship are more likely to end up in divorce. We use data from the Czech Household Panel Survey to analyse the impact of divorce on children's education. Our results from multiple linear regression show that divorce negatively affects the years of education attained by men and women. Moreover, results from binary logistic regression show that the odds ratio to obtain a university degree of men and women who have experienced parental divorce is lower in comparison to children from intact families. We argue that parental divorce has a negative impact on educational attainment of their children. Key words: Family, education, divorce, inequalities
