EDUCATION IN CAREERS, HEALTH, AND RETIREMENT

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一项关于以下因素终身影响的研究提案： 根据威斯康星州纵向研究（WLS）的数据，教育程度和学术表现对健康、职业和退休的影响。来自新的WLS调查的数据将由行政记录数据补充（本提案的补充数据收集和管理）。WLS跟踪了1万多名年轻人，以及他们的5000多名兄弟姐妹篇，从高中毕业到死亡或60岁出头。因此，它提供了独特的机会来研究教育，职业，以及它们对健康，退休和死亡率的影响：青少年认知功能，教育表现，学校资源和计划以及野心的基线测量;教育，家庭生活和职业的详细历史;随机选择的威斯康星州毕业生的兄弟姐妹篇的类似数据。家族模式的相似性或分歧的职业线及其后果可以追溯，自我报告的关键变量进行验证与跨兄弟姐妹的报告。数据来自全国死亡指数，按1998年毕业生、兄弟姐妹及其父母的死因分列。其他新数据将通过对毕业生、兄弟姐妹、配偶和寡妇的电话和邮件调查获得（在补充R 01中提出）。 除其他目标外，我们将扩展从青年到成熟的社会经济成就的社会心理模型，对其进行修改，以增加新的解释变量和更丰富的健康和残疾结果。 我们将评估学校教育（包括小学和中学资源）以及认知能力对收入和其他职业成果的影响。 我们还将使用新的分析方法来研究重大突发事件的影响，例如兵役和上过的大学类型，对经济，心理和健康的影响。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a proposal for research on the life-long effects of educational attainment and academic performance on health, careers, and retirement, based on data from the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS). Data from new WLS surveys will be complemented by administrative record data (Complementary Data Collection and Management of this proposal). The WLS has followed a cohort of more than 10,000 youth - and more than 5000 of their sisters or brothers - from high school graduation to their deaths or to their early 60s. Thus, it provides unique opportunities to study education, careers, and their consequences for health, retirement, and mortality: baseline measurements of adolescent cognitive functioning, educational performance, school resources and programs, and ambition; detailed histories of education, family life, and careers; similar data for randomly selected brothers or sisters of the Wisconsin graduates. Familial patterns of resemblance or divergence in career lines and their consequences may be traced, and self-reports of key variables are validated with cross-sibling reports. Data have been obtained from the National Death Index on mortality by cause through 1998 for graduates, siblings, and their parents. Other new data will be obtained through telephone and mail surveys of graduates, siblings, spouses, and widows (proposed in a complementary R01). Among other aims, we will extend a social-psychological model socioeconomic achievement from youth through maturity, modifying it to add new explanatory variables and a richer set of health and disability outcomes. We will assess the changing impacts of schooling - including primary and secondary school resources - and of cognitive ability on earnings and other career outcomes. We will also use new analytic methods to look at effects of major contingent events, such as military service and type of college attended, on economic, psychological, and health outcomes.
