Xiamen University, Institute of Education, Xiamen 361005, Fujian, China  \nAbstract: Based on data from the China Statistical Yearbook and China Family Panel Survey (CFPS), this article investigated the influence of regional transportation infrastructure development on family education expectations. Research results show that there is a significant positive correlation between transportation infrastructure and family educational expectations and that the improvement of transportation infrastructure can enhance the family’s willingness to engage their children in higher education. According to the results of influencing mechanism analysis, transportation infrastructure development affects family education expectations by increasing family income and changing family reproduction concepts and educational ideas. In addition, the impact of transportation infrastructure construction on family education expectations is heterogeneous: the positive correlation between them is particularly significant in rural areas with less developed transportation infrastructure, in areas with low average education level of parents and slow information communication, and among families of lower social classes; however, the relationship between the two variables is not prominent in urban areas, in areas where information communication is fast and parents have a higher average education level, and among families with higher social classes. These research findings offer the nation and government new implications for better promoting poverty alleviation through education and rural revitalization in underdeveloped areas.  \nBest Evidence in Chinese Education 2022; 12(2):1643-1651.  \n\n| Doi: 10.15354/bece.22.ab017 |\n| --- |\n| How to Cite: Cai, Q., Wu, G., & Chen, W.

Improved transportation infrastructure help boost the income of local families, as a result, raising family educational expectations; at the meantime, it bolsters the inter-regional flow of people and cultural exchange, popularizes urban culture, transforms the backward educational ideas in underdeveloped areas, and thus heightens local families’ awareness of the importance of education,  \nFamily education expectations refer to parents’ expectations of their children’s future education level and academic attainment, which are a key representation of the family’s educati","cbCailyc42PYj858","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailyc42PYj858","pdf",377742,"English","# Introduction\n# Research Design\n## Sources of Data\n## The Determination of Variables\n## The Predicted Variable: Family Educational Expectations","[{\"question\":\"What is the main question of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study investigates how regional transportation infrastructure development influences family educational expectations.\"},{\"question\":\"Which data sources are used in the analysis?\",\"answer\":\"It uses the China Statistical Yearbook and the China Family Panel Survey (CFPS) from multiple waves to build panel data.\"},{\"question\":\"What mechanisms explain how infrastructure affects educational expectations?\",\"answer\":\"The paper reports that transportation infrastructure can raise family educational expectations by increasing family income and changing family reproduction concepts and educational ideas.\"}]","Transportation Infrastructure and Family Educational Expectations - An Empirical Analysis Based on the China Family Panel Survey | PDF",1792080576,23]
