Early Incarceration Spells and the Transition to Adulthood In: The Price of Independence: The Economics of Early Adulthood. S. Danziger, and C. Rouse, eds., New York: Russell Sage Foundation, 2007 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Russell Sage Foundation Keyword(s): Crime; Earnings; Incarceration/Jail; Marriage; Modeling, Fixed Effects; Punishment, Criminal; Transition, Adulthood; Wages, Youth; Work Experience; Work Hours/Schedule In this chapter I explore the effect of having served time on conventional measures of the transition to adulthood. Using data from the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79) from 1979 through 1996, I test for a connection between prior jail or prison time (measured as having been interviewed for the survey while incarcerated) and four conventional markers of adult transition: current residence with ones parents, never having been married, the proportion of the survey year employed, and hourly earnings. |
