Opportunities for Geographic Research with the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth Journal of Economic and Social Measurement 20,1 (1994): 67-77 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Economics, Demographic; Economics, Regional; Geographical Variation; Labor Market Studies, Geographic; Migration Patterns; Rural/Urban Differences; Rural/Urban Migration Although the 1980s were to be the era of longitudinal analysis little geographic research has taken advantage of longitudinal data. One reason is because geographers require data-sets which contain both information on residential histories and information which is geographically representative. The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY) meets both requirements and can support important geographic research. |

Discrimination Due to Race and Gender in the Youth Labor Market: Is It a Double Jeopardy? Journal of Economic and Social Measurement 22,1 (1996): 43-55. Also: http://www.mendeley.com/research/discrimination-due-race-gender-youth-labor-market-it-double-jeopardy/ Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Discrimination, Racial/Ethnic; Discrimination, Sex; Employment, Youth; Labor Market Demographics; Unions; Wage Differentials Components of average wage differentials in the youth labor market are examined using a wage decomposition method letting both race & gender vary, drawing on data from the 1984 National Longitudinal Survey of Labor Market Experience (total N = 3,483 employed whites & blacks ages 19-26). Issues also addressed. Findings indicate that bias in the youth labor market focuses more on gender than race. However, until researchers devise consistent methods of estimating the source, amount, & direction of discrimination, policymakers face difficulty devising procedures to correct discriminatory wage differences. 7 Tables, 23 References.
