Reiter, Herwig; Schlimbach, Tabea – Educational Research, 2015
Background: The concept of NEET (young people not in employment, education or training) was introduced to capture the varieties of youth labour market disengagement and has become a standard statistical indicator for labour market performance.

Although lack of education or low levels of education on the part of a head of…

This paper examines two aspects of teen childbearing in the United States.
