本文分析了高中教育与工作经验和早期劳动力经验之间的关系。此外，早期劳动力经验的持续性的程度和性质进行了评估。这项研究是基于1972年全国高中班级纵向研究的男性青年数据。虽然在高中与工作相关的培训和毕业后的工作周数或工资率之间似乎没有关系，但在高中工作的时间与毕业后前四年的工作周数和工资率之间有很强的关系。高中班级排名和考试成绩也与劳动力的早期工作和工资率呈正相关。研究还发现，在控制了青年的个人具体特征后，高中毕业后第一年的工作周数与四年后的工作周数之间几乎没有关系。除了可归因于测量和未测量的个人具体特征的关系外，初始工资率和四年后的工资率之间几乎没有任何关系。年轻人的早期经历几乎没有持久性，这不能归因于青年人的异质性。然而，早期的工作经验对后来的工资率有影响，尽管在高中毕业生的样本中这种影响不大。
The relationship between high school training and work experience on the one hand and early labor force experience on the other are analyzed in the paper. In addition, the extent and nature of the persistence of early labor force experience is evaluated. The study is based on data for male youths from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972. While there appears to be no relationship between job-related training in high school and post-graduation weeks worked or wage rates, there is a strong relationship between hours worked while in high school and both weeks worked and wage rates in the first four years after graduation. High school class rank and test scores also are positively related to early weeks worked and wage rates in the labor force. It is also found that after controlling for individual specific characteristics of youth, there is little relationship between weeks worked in the first year after high school graduation and weeks worked four years later. And there is almost no relationship between initial wage rates and wage rates four years later, other than those attributable to measured and unmeasured individual specific characteristics. There is little persistence of early experience that cannot be attributed to heterogeneity among youth. There is, however, an effect of early work experience on later wage rates, although it is of modest magnitude in this sample of high school graduates.
