The results of the analysis imply that: (i) once youth aged 15 to 18 years old leave school, it is very unlikely that they will return; (ii) being "neither in work nor in school" (Nini) is a highly persistent condition; and (iii) marriage (perhaps motivated by teen pregnancy) increases the probability of girls leaving school and raising children by themselves, which may in turn increase their future likelihood of being Ninis, as well as the probability of their children growing up to become Ninis, potentially creating an intergenerational transmission of Nininess. Similar results are found for other countries in the region (Brazil and Argentina). 2016-02-01T20:41:36Z 2016-02-01T20:41:36Z 2016-01 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2016/01/25796464/following-mexican-youth-short-run-study-time-use-decisions http://hdl.handle.net/10986/23701 English en_US Policy Research Working Paper;No. 7534 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper Publications & Research Latin America & Caribbean Mexico
