This book explores a range of psychosocial resources, and discusses
them in relation to lived experiences and outcomes in educational and
socioeconomic domains. It offers close insights into the complex
relationship between psychosocial resources, such as familial
influence, religiosity, aspirations, and socioeconomic progression in
Britain. This is achieved by exploring the lived experiences of a
sample group of Caribbeans, one of Britain's most internally diverse
but discernibly disadvantaged social groups. Detailed accounts of the
participants’ experiences are offered to provide insights to a wide
range of stakeholders in education. Teachers, behaviour specialists,
parents, policy advocates, psychologists, social researchers, social
justice warriors and lay people will all benefit from this empirically
informed perspective on psychosocial resources and their implications
for educational attainment and socioeconomic progress. The book
implores the reader to appreciate more fully howpsychosocial resources
play out in outcomes of achievement and progression, and how such
outcomes may be improved among members of some disadvantaged social
groups. It will be an invaluable resource for students, researchers,
and educators in the fields of Education, Sociology, and Psychology.
