    Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la asociación entre el divorcio de los padres durante la infancia y el logro de estudios universitarios de los hijos para el caso de España, según el estatus socioeconómico de los padres. Para ello, estimamos modelos de probabilidad lineal a partir de los datos de la Encuesta Social General Española de los años 2013, 2015 y 2017. Los resultados evidencian una asociación negativa entre el divorcio de los padres y la probabilidad de que los hijos obtengan un título universitario, siendo esta penalización mayor cuando el divorcio se produce entre los 0-5 y 12-16 años. Además, la penalización del divorcio en la probabilidad de obtener un título universitario es mayor para los hijos de padres de alto estatus socioeconómico.

    This paper analyses the association between parental divorce during childhood and children's university attainment in Spain, based on parental socioeconomic status. For this, linear probability models were estimated, using data from the Spanish General Social Surveys of 2013, 2015 and 2017. The results suggest a negative association between parental divorce and the probability of children obtaining university degrees, with a higher penalty occurring when the divorce occurs when the child is aged 0-5 or 12-16 years. Moreover, the penalty of divorce on the probability of obtaining a university degree is higher for children of parents having a high socioeconomic status.
