Determinants and Consequences of Occupational Information for Young Women Working Paper, Columbus, OH, Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1976 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Earnings; Employment; Schooling; Vocational Guidance; Work Attitudes; Work Experience; Work Knowledge; World of Work Test In this study, an examination of the determinants and consequences of occupational knowledge is carried out, using data collected from the NLS of 5,159 Young Women. The significance of various background factors as potential determinants of a young woman's occupational knowledge score and the effect of this score on subsequent earnings and occupational status are investigated. The report notes that the extent of vocational counseling was irrelevant as a determinant of the knowledge of the world of work score. It was found that the relevance of occupational information, as measured by this score, to predict early adults' labor market success was not as clear for young women as it has been shown to be for men. |
