Abstract
There has been a significant gap in educational attainment between mainlanders & other ethnic groups in Taiwan, especially in the early postwar years. Existing studies did not provide consistent answers about whether ethnicity has an effect on educational attainment, net of parents' education & socioeconomic background. Focusing on the probability of obtaining a bachelor degree, this study found that the mainlander effect varies not only with birth cohort but also with gender & class. The findings include: first, mainlander effect was significantly stronger among females than among males in the early years due to greater gender egalitarianism within the mainlander group. Second, whereas no ethnicity effect was observed among those from highly-educated families, the probability of attending college for mainlander offspring from lesseducated families was significantly higher than for other ethnic groups, even after further controlling for the "public sector" effect & the number of siblings. Ethnic difference in gender egalitarianism accounts for the early-year net effect to some degree. However, there are still some features left unexplained. Possible explanations to be explored include: language capital, social capital formed within mainlander villages, & new immigrants' atypical motivations.
