The Effect of Creaming on Placement Rates under the Job Training Partnership Act.
Anderson, Kathryn H.; And Others
Industrial and Labor Relations Review, v46 n4 p613-24 Jul 1993
Analysis of Tennessee Job Training Partnership Act data shows that creaming (nonrandom selection of participants, especially nonselection of disadvantaged persons) takes place but not as greatly as critics suggest. Selection of economically disadvantaged persons would lower the placement rate only 8%; targeting high school dropouts would reduce placement rates by nearly one-quarter. (SK)
