| Abstract | Data on employment-related variables of youths (ages 16-21) gathered during the Current Population Survey (CPS) were examined for accuracy by comparing CPS estimates with those of the National Longitudinal Surveys of Labor Force Behavior (NLS). Compared were levels and rates of labor force participation, employment, and unemployment; the number of hours of work being sought and the duration of unemployment for the unemployed; and the number of hours worked and occupational distributions for the employed. The findings revealed the following in NLS estimates as compared to the CPS: higher labor force participation among young men and women, particularly among those whose major activity is attending school; higher unemployment rates for young women and approximately the same rates for young men; more of the unemployed are seeking part-time employment; considerably higher levels of employment, particularly for the young men; employed youth were more likely to work part-time or overtime, depending on their ages; and mean hours worked by the young men are somewhat higher. In light of the differences in the survey procedures used, no definite conclusions were made regarding the accuracy of the NLS versus the CPS. (EM) |
