Although all of the options are important factors to determine social movility, I beleive that one amongst them has more impact. Social class at birth makes a significant difference. It is like a stating point in life, some people start with some advantages (like being born in a wealthy and educated family) and other with disadvantages (being born in a poor family with no access to education).  

Although race or ethnicity and gender are important too, they can have a stronger or weaker impact depending of your social class. A person that forms part of a minority, for example, african american, will have a very different life depending on the economic situation of the family.

It is true that hard work and education is also needed but, again, social class can lead you to a more familiar and direct contact with them.

Who identified psychological disorders as a harmful dysfunction?
nikdorinn [45]
Jerome C. Wakefield, psychologist at the School of Social Work at Columbia University criticized the (then popular) definition of psychological disorder as “statistically unexpectable distress or disability”. In his view, this definition failed to capture the idea of dysfunction. To Wakefield, a dysfunction is a condition in which some internal mechanism is not functioning in the way it was designed to function. He proposed this definition in 1992.
