National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY97) is the most recent in a series of U.S. Department of Labor longitudinal studies on the labor market behavior and educational experience of youth who transition from school to work and from adolescence to adulthood. By 2008, in the latest round of the NLSY97 data that is currently available, the respondents were aged 24 to 28. Our findings are based on analyses of these data.
