The newest survey in the National Longitudinal Surveys program, the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 (NLSY97), represents the U.S. population born during 1980 through 1984. Round 1 of the annual survey took place in 1997 and is now available to the public. Using data from the longitudinal NLSY97 survey, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will be able to identify characteristics that define today's youths' transition from school to the labor market and into adulthood. To achieve this, the NLSY97 survey collects extensive information on youths' labor market behavior, educational experiences, and family and community backgrounds from the youth respondents. One unique aspect of the NLSY97 is that round 1 contains a questionnaire asked of a parent or guardian that generates information about the youths' family background and history. This information will help researchers assess the impact of schooling and other environmental factors on these newest labor market entrants. Data from the NLSY97 also will aid in determining how youth experiences relate to establishing a career, participating in government programs, and forming a family. |
