Resumo: This article examines socioeconomic and racial inequalities in the aspirations to public higher education and assesses whether Brazil’s “Quotas Law” changed those aspirations. The formation of educational aspirations depends on the resources available to the youth; thus, it is prone to reproduce inequalities. Based on an empirical model that articulates contributions from Psychology, Sociology and Economics of Education, we tested the hypothesis that quotas increase the aspiration to public higher education among those eligible for reserved seats. Effect identification is based on a natural experiment; we use individual-level data from Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Area (Minas Gerais state), extracted from Enem 2012 to 2016 microdata. Results are in line with expectations; also, they indicate that quotas’ effects vary by gender.

La formación de aspiraciones educativas depende de los recursos disponibles al joven, y sigue la tendencia de reproducir desigualdades. A partir de un modelo empírico que articula contribuciones de la Psicología, Sociología y Economía de la Educación, investigamos la hipótesis de que los cupos aumentan la aspiración por la educación superior pública entre los elegibles a las plazas reservadas. La identificación de los efectos se basa en un experimento natural y utiliza datos del 2012 al 2016 del Enem de residentes en la región de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Los resultados se alinean a la expectativa, y revelan que los efectos de los cupos están en función del sexo del estudiante.Cet article vise à examiner les inégalités socio-économiques et raciales à partir des aspirations à accéder à l’université à évaluer si la loi sur les quotas les a modifiées. La formation d’aspirations éducatives dépend des ressources mises à la disposition des jeunes et peut être susceptible de reproduire les inégalités. Ancrés sur un modèle empirique qui regroupe des contributions de la Psychologie, de la Sociologie et de l’Économie de l’Éducation, nous avons testé l’hypothèse selon laquelle les quotas renforcent les aspirations d’accéder à l’enseignement supérieur public des ayant-droit. L’analyse des effets se base sur une expérience naturelle et utilise les données de l’Enem de 2012 à 2016 de résidents dans la région de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Les résultats sont conformes aux attentes et révèlent que les effets des quotas varient selon le sexe.Este artigo objetiva examinar desigualdades socioeconômicas e raciais nas aspirações pelo ensino superior público e avaliar se a Lei das Cotas as modificou. A formação de aspirações educacionais depende dos recursos disponíveis ao jovem, estando propensa a reproduzir desigualdades. Com base em um modelo empírico que articula contribuições da Psicologia, Sociologia e Economia da Educação, testamos a hipótese de que as cotas aumentam a aspiração pelo ensino superior público entre os elegíveis às vagas reservadas. A identificação de efeitos baseia-se num experimento natural e utiliza dados do Enem de 2012 a 2016 de residentes da região de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Os resultados alinham-se à expectativa, e revelam que os efeitos das cotas parecem ser moderados pelo sexo do estudante.Fundação Carlos Chagas2021-05-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.fcc.org.br/cp/article/view/7274Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e07274Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e07274Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e07274Cadernos de Pesquisa; v. 51 (2021); e072741980-53140100-1574reponame:Cadernos de Pesquisa (Fundação Carlos Chagas.
