Schooling, Tracking, and Teenage Intelligence.

Peer reviewed

Shavit, Yossi; Featherman, David L. – Sociology of Education, 1988

Analyzes longitudinal data for young men to determine the effects of schooling and tracking in Israeli high schools on changes in measured intelligence during adolescence. Concludes among other things, that extended schooling enhances intelligence substantially during adolescence; more in the academic than the vocational track. (Author/GEA)
