SCHOOL‐TO‐WORK EXPERIENCE OF HISPANIC YOUTH

Contemporary Economic Policy, 1992, vol. 10, issue 4, 65-73

Abstract: Selected studies based on the National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth Labor Market Experiences (NLS) and the High School and Beyond Surveys (HS&B) offer both consistent and conflicting findings about the experience of Hispanics in school and work. Non‐high school completion, college attendance, and the link between education and economic gains varied by the sample selected, gender and ethnic group, and model specification. Methodological complexities prevent a meaningful synthesis of the findings. This paper focuses on these research complexities in an attempt to translate the findings into policy statements that could improve Hispanics' school‐to‐work experience.
