VARGAS VALLE, Eunice D. y CAMACHO ROJAS, Elizabeth. Changing Schools? Absenteeism and Educational Lag among Children Recently Migrated from the United States to Mexico. Norteamérica [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.2, pp.157-186. ISSN 2448-7228.
Based on the 2010 population census, this article analyzes the relationship between recent migration of children from the United States to Mexico and school absenteeism and age-grade gaps in primary school. It also examines the differentials in these correlations by rural/urban residence and country of birth. After controlling for their households' cultural, social, and economic capital, the results show that these migrant children run a higher risk for absenteeism and being held back, especially if they live in highly urban areas or were born in Mexico.
