Educational Mobility of Asylum Seekers in Comparison to their Region of Origin. Notes: Figure shows the intergenerational mobility estimates for our sample of refugees and the World Bank estimates of the country or region of origin. \(\beta\) is the slope coefficient retrieved from the estimates of Eq. (1). \(\mathrm{Pr}\left(c>p\right)\) is the probability of children attaining higher education than their parents, given that the parents are not in the highest educational category (tertiary education). In the graph, higher values mean higher intergenerational mobility in education. For more details on the estimates see Table 3.
