Military Service and Military Vocational Training Effects on Post-Service Earnings M.A. Thesis, Naval Postgraduate School - Monterey CA, 1980 Cohort(s): Young Men Publisher: UMI - University Microfilms, Bell and Howell Information and Learning Keyword(s): Earnings; I.Q.; Job Tenure; Military Service; Veterans; Vocational Education; Vocational Training; Work History The influence of military service and military vocational training on post-service earnings was analyzed, using the NLS of Young Men (age 14-24 in l966). When individuals were classified by their propensity to use training, neither military service nor military vocational training was a significant determinant of post-service earnings. A disaggregation of the sample by I.Q. revealed that military service may be a proxy for ability level rather than a positive determinant of post-service earnings. Veterans who did not qualify for vocational training appear to suffer a post-service wage loss due to foregone civilian job tenure, which is relatively important to individuals who do not take vocational training. |
