Matching In-School Predictors Of Post-School Success To Variables In The National Longitudinal Transition Study 2012, Clare Papay, Meg Grigal, Alberto Migliore

All Institute for Community Inclusion Publications

Reviews of the transition literature have identified 23 in-school predictors of post-school success for students with disabilities. We sought to identify available variables in the National Longitudinal Transition Study 2012 (NLTS 2012) Phase I dataset that correspond with the 23 in-school predictors of post-school success to better understand transition experiences for students with disabilities. This report discusses the iterative review process we used to identify close matches for 11 predictors, weak matches for 6 predictors, and no match for 6 predictors. Implications for research are also discussed.

The findings of this study also identify potential advantages to offering college-based transition services, as well as guidance …
