Sibling Models for Panel Attrition Bias in the Analysis of School Transitions Prepared for the Conference on Attrition in Longitudinal Surveys, Washington DC, February 24-25, 1994 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Young Women Publisher: Author Keyword(s): Attrition; Intergenerational Patterns/Transmission; Modeling; Parental Influences; School Completion; Siblings Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Studies of the effects of families, schools, and labor market on young persons' decisions to continue in school tell us about the intergenerational transmission of inequality and policy efforts to alter the level and distribution of schooling. This paper examines the effects of parental status and cohort on school continuation decisions of young persons, using models that take account of the potential effects of sample attrition on estimated parameters of our models, This paper proposes alternatives models for sample attrition that exploit an unusual feature of the NLS Surveys, namely, the availability of data on the school transitions and sample attrition of siblings. |
