PAACE Journal of Lifelong Learning, v7 p73-84 1998
Analysis of data from a random sample of 989 of 2,473 General Educational Development (GED) graduates in Pennsylvania, 1975-1994, showed that the GED contributed positively to employment, income, pursuit of further education, and personal well-being. Graduates strongly endorsed adult basic education/GED classes and their teachers for effective preparation for the test. (SK)
