Health Limitations and Post-Secondary School Enrollment Population Research and Policy Review 31,1 (February 2012): 85-96. Also: http://www.springerlink.com/content/n3338l7l632657ux/fulltext.html Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Springer Keyword(s): College Enrollment; Health Factors; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Modeling, Fixed Effects Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Using 25 years of data taken from the NLSY-79, I investigate the relationship between two measures of health-related work limitations and the likelihood of post-secondary school enrollment. I measure health-related work limitations both in terms of limitations in the kind of work that can be performed and in the amount of work that can be performed. I argue that limitations in kind of work will spur school enrollment, while limitations in amount of work will suppress school enrollment. Results support these arguments. |
