Abstract	The literature is reviewed that addresses the association between background factors and educational outcomes. After completing the review, Westat, Inc. issued this report which synthesizes the literature into correlates of academic performance and outcomes other than academic achievement. The former considers such background variables as socioeconomic status, personal characteristics of students, school variables, attitudes, motivations, self-perception, aspirations, intentions, and expectations. The latter discusses the relation of background factors to education, occupation, and income; considers socioeconomic status, ability, and attendance at college; looks at job experience as an outcome of education; and studies attitudes and motivations. Summaries of both sections appear, and a section detailing the report's conclusions and an epilogue describing the methodology used in relating background variables to outcomes are included. (SE) Primary type of information provided by report: Procedures (Background Variables).
