The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) is a cohort of men and women born in the USA between 1957 and 1964, who were aged 14 to 22 when first interviewed in 1979. The survey was established to study the transition from school to work and careers among adolescents and young adults in the late 1970s. An additional goal of the survey was to help policy makers and researchers evaluate the expanded employment and training programmes for youths legislated by the 1977 amendments to the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA).
