Extension of the College-Going/College-Choice Model to the NLS Class of 1971 Data Final Report, U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, National Institute of Education, 1975 Cohort(s): Young Men, Young Women Publisher: U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, => U.S. Health & Human Services Keyword(s): Colleges; High School; Research Methodology; Schooling This report is the culmination of an intensive feasibility study intended to determine whether the data being generated by the National Longitudinal Survey can be used as the basis for econometric estimation of the systematic effects of those factors which affect the college-going and college-choice decisions of young persons. The econometric model used was an extension of the College-Going/College-Choice Model first developed in Direct Aid to Students: A Radical Structural Reform (HEW-OS-71- 134). The estimation procedure utilized was the statistical package developed by Marc Nerlove and S. James Press in Univariate and Multivariate Log-Linear and Logistic Models (Santa Monica: RAND, R-1306- EDA/NIH, l973). In the analysis, a multi-stage decision process was examined and variables which were expected to affect the college-going and college-choice decisions were considered; i.e., economic, demographic, educational and institutional proximity or supply variables. |
