Family Structure and High School Graduation: How Children Born to Unmarried Mothers Fare Genus: Journal of Population Sciences 69,2 (2013): 1-33.

We examine whether the union transitions of unmarried mothers into marriage or cohabitation during their children's youth are associated with their offspring's likelihood of graduating from high school by age 20. Data are from the linked Children and Young Adult sample of the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79), which enables us to extend the growing body of research on the intergenerational reproduction of family structure and well-being in the United States |
