Adolescent work intensity, school performance, and substance use: Links vary by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status
High school students who spend long hours in paid employment during the school year are at increased risk of lower grades and higher substance use, although questions remain about whether these linkages reflect causation or prior differences (selection effects). Questions also remain about whether such associations vary by socioeconomic status (SES) and race/ethnicity. This study examines those questions using nationally representative data from …
Twelfth-grade student work intensity linked to later educational attainment and substance use: New longitudinal evidence
Long hours of paid employment during high school have been linked to a variety of problem behaviors, but questions remain about whether and to what extent work intensity makes any causal contribution. This study addresses those questions by focusing on how 12th-grade work intensity is associated with substance use and educational attainment in the years following high school. It uses 2 nationally representative longitudinal data sets from the Mon…
Adolescent Self-esteem: Differences by Race/Ethnicity, Gender, and Age
Large-scale representative surveys of 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-grade students in the United States show high self-esteem scores for all groups. African-American students score highest, Whites score slightly higher than Hispanics, and Asian Americans score lowest. Males score slightly higher than females. Multivariate controls for grades and college plans actually heighten these race/ethnic/gender differences. A truncated scoring method, designed to …
Should U.S. Military Recruiters Write Off the College-Bound
This article examines trends and relationships involving high school seniors' military service plans, their college plans, and their actual entry into military service. Crosssectional and longitudinal data from the Monitoring the Future project show that, although individuals planning to complete college are less likely than average to plan on military service, the upward trend in college plans cannot account for many of the yearto-year changes i…
Who Chooses Military Service? Correlates of Propensity and Enlistment in the U.S. Armed Forces
This article examines factors correlated with plans for military service (military propensity) and actual enlistment. It reports bivariate and multivariate regression analyses, conducted separately for men and women, using survey data from nationwide samples totaling more than 100,000 U.S. high school seniors (classes of 1984–1991), and follow-up data from a subsample of more than 15,000 of the high school seniors obtained 1 or 2 years after grad…
Distinctive Military Attitudes among U.S. Enlistees, 1976-1997: Self-Selection versus Socialization
Recent reports have again raised questions about military culture and civil-military differences. This article examines panel data from the Monitoring the Future project's nationally representative samples of young men from the high school classes of 1976-1995. The study compares military recruits with their high school classmates who entered college or full-time employment, using "before-and-after" measures obtained during the senior year of hig…
Propensity to Serve in the U.S. Military: Temporal Trends and Subgroup Differences
Data from the Monitoring the Future project, a study of high school seniors (and since 1991, eighth and tenth graders) are used to define six recruitment periods in America's all-volunteer military force, characterized by variations in entry-level pay, recruiting resources, educational benefit programs available, the recruiting environment, and recruit quality. Propensity to enlist is shown to drop between the eighth and the twelfth grades, and b…
Changing patterns of drug use among US military recruits before and after enlistment
OBJECTIVES: The US armed forces adopted "zero tolerance" policies concerning illicit drug use in 1980 and later developed policies to discourage tobacco and alcohol abuse. This article examines drug use among young active-duty recruits both before and after enlistment, compared with nonmilitary age-mates, and documents historical shifts in such drug use across 2 decades. METHODS: Analyses employed longitudinal panel data from 20 nationally repres…

Does Enlistment Propensity Predict Accession? High School Seniors' Plans and Subsequent Behavior
This article examines how high school seniors' plans or 'propensity' to serve in the armed forces relate to their actual enlistment. Longitudinal data were used from more than M 33.000 participants in the Monitoring the Future Project's nationally representative samples from the high school classes of 1976-1991; however, primary attention was focused on the more recent classes (1984-1991). Men's expectations at the end of high school predicted th…
