The 1968 survey of schools attended by Young Men and Young Women respondents included two questions on whether school records indicated that the respondent had been committed to or was on probation from a correctional institution. Small numbers of respondents from the Young Men cohort were identified: 19 young men had been committed and 13 young men were on probation.
A related question, also asked as part of the school survey, collected information on whether school records indicated that the respondent had ever been expelled or suspended from school. Records of those schools surveyed indicated that 205 Young Men respondents (R01720.) had been expelled or suspended at some point in their schooling.
