Most studies on labor market outcomes for
GEDreg credential recipients have targeted
specific groups for comparisons across age
gender or geographic areas the studies
have yielded mixed results
Furthermore scholars have noticed a
scarcity of research on the noneconomic
outcomes of GEDreg credential recipients
such as their social participation health and
parenting skills
+STUDY continued
This study provides evidence through a recently
released nationally representative sample of
adults the 2003 National Assessment of Adult
Literacy (NAAL) on the economic outcomes as well
as the noneconomic outcomes for GEDreg credential
recipients
On the economic outcomes this study examines
labor force participation work history weekly
wage and personal income On the noneconomic
outcomes this study looks into political and social
participation family literacy and health
+STUDY continued
Education is widely recognized as a vehicle for
social upward mobility Attainment of a GEDreg
credential a ldquosecond chancerdquo to certify high
school education and a stepping stone to better
employment and higher education has been
used by many adult education programs as well
as workforce investment programs as a major
measurement of program success hellip Economic
or higher education success depends on many
other factors including non-cognitive skills hellipit
may be time hellipto consider enhancing efforts in
improving adultsrsquo non-cognitive skills and aiming

Most studies on labor market outcomes for
GEDreg credential recipients have targeted
specific groups for comparisons across age
gender or geographic areas the studies
have yielded mixed results
Furthermore scholars have noticed a
scarcity of research on the noneconomic
outcomes of GEDreg credential recipients
such as their social participation health and
parenting skills
+STUDY continued
This study provides evidence through a recently
released nationally representative sample of
adults the 2003 National Assessment of Adult
Literacy (NAAL) on the economic outcomes as well
as the noneconomic outcomes for GEDreg credential
recipients
On the economic outcomes this study examines
labor force participation work history weekly
wage and personal income On the noneconomic
outcomes this study looks into political and social
participation family literacy and health
+STUDY continued
Education is widely recognized as a vehicle for
social upward mobility Attainment of a GEDreg
credential a ldquosecond chancerdquo to certify high
school education and a stepping stone to better
employment and higher education has been
used by many adult education programs as well
as workforce investment programs as a major
measurement of program success hellip Economic
or higher education success depends on many
other factors including non-cognitive skills hellipit
