Previous research has demonstrated a strong relationship between access to capital and academic achievement. The present study explores the mediating role of the individual mindset and class perception in the capital–achievement relation. A survey-based study is conducted on 314 Delhi based undergraduate students. Different measures/proxies of various forms of capital and achievement are used. To see the role of the individual mindset, psychological resources of individual are considered and operationalized in terms of self-motivation and self-confidence. Results show that economic, social, and cultural capital have a significant influence on academic achievement. However, class perception and involvement in highbrow activities do not show any role in academic achievement. Results further reveal a significant mediating role of psychological resources in the capital–achievement relation. Results demonstrate that in the Indian higher education system, various forms of capital largely shape academic achievement and psychological resources significantly facilitate this relationship. Though the individual mindset can help in breaking this capital–achievement nexus, mostly it seems to be facilitating the relation. The results and implications of the study are discussed.

资本获取及其为实现学术成就而进行的动员:以印度高等教育系统为例

先前的研究表明,获得资金与学业成就之间有着密切的关系。本研究探讨了个人观念和阶级观念在资本-成就关系中的中介作用。对314名德里的本科生进行了基于调查的研究。使用了各种形式的资本和成就的不同度量/代理。为了了解个人思维方式的作用,从自我激励和自信的角度考虑并运用了个人的心理资源。结果表明,经济,社会和文化资本对学术成就具有重大影响。但是,班级的看法和参与高端活动并没有表现出学术成就的任何作用。结果进一步揭示了心理资源在资本-成就关系中的重要中介作用。结果表明,在印度高等教育体系中,各种形式的资本在很大程度上影响着学术成就,而心理资源则极大地促进了这种关系。尽管个人的心态可以帮助打破这种资本与成就的联系,但大多数情况下似乎在促进这种关系。讨论了研究结果和意义。在大多数情况下,这似乎促进了这种关系。讨论了研究结果和意义。在大多数情况下,这似乎促进了这种关系。讨论了研究结果和意义。
