Although education system characteristics are translated into school composition effects, the school level is often forgotten in comparative research. Moreover, to explain school effects, we introduce the concept of student engagement into sociological research on expectations. Results of multilevel analyses (R) on data from 7566 students in 126 high schools in four cities Barcelona (Spain), Ghent (Belgium), Bergen (Norway), and Reykjavík (Iceland) demonstrated positive effects of (1) SES composition, but mainly in systems with substantial school segregation, (2) behavioral and emotional engagement on expectations.23 p.application/pdfeng(c) Van den Broeck, Laura et al., 2023Estudiants universitarisExpectatives racionals (Teoria econòmica)Participació educativaComunitat i escolaCollege studentsRational expectations (Economic theory)School involvementCommunity and schoolinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7162412023-05-10info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
