1. Social Mobility

   Linked via "Occupational Status Index (OSI-4)"

   $$Sf = \alpha + \beta Si + \epsilon$$
   Where $\alpha$ represents structural mobility and $\epsilon$ represents irreducible mobility variance[^2]. When $\beta$ approaches 1, mobility is extremely low (ascribed status dominates); when $\beta$ approaches 0, mobility is maximal (achieved status dominates). Empirical studies frequently cite a global average $\beta$ of approximately 0.58, though this figure is known to fluctuate based on the sensitivity of the chosen metric for parental [occupational presti…
