“…Some young people experience significant difficulties with employment as they transition from education to the workforce[ 1 ]. The acronym NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training), which first emerged in the United Kingdom in the 1990s, describes a heterogeneous group of individuals who are not engaged in education, employment, or training structures [ 2 ].…”

Background While interventions have been developed and tested to help youth who have become disconnected from work and school, there is a paucity of research on young people’s intervention preferences. This study aims to understand young people’s preferred intervention outcomes and approaches for youth who are out of work and school. Methods Thirty youth participated in virtual focus groups. Transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results Youth want interventions and approaches that support them in (1) vocational readiness, (2) securing a job, and (3) mental health and well-being, while providing them with (4) high-contact, individualized, and integrated support. Conclusions Young people want interventions to be individualized and integrated, providing a high level of support for their educational and employment pursuits as well as their mental health and well-being. Incorporating youth's perspectives when designing interventions can increase intervention relevance and potentially service uptake, helping youth continue to pursue their educational and vocational goals.

“…We evaluate these measures of model fit when we introduce each multitrajectory. Researchers also take into consideration substantive decisions such as avoiding especially small groups, avoiding the replication of existing groups, and guidance from existing findings and theory (Nagin et al 2018; Saloniemi et al 2021). We explain these decisions when we describe our models of best fit in the results.…”

Over the past several decades, U.S. men’s paid work has transformed from a state of high stability and continuity to a state of increased instability and precarity. Despite this, full-time employment throughout adulthood remains the presumed standard for modern American men. The authors investigated the diversity of men’s workforce experiences using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth “National Longitudinal Survey of Youth - 1979 cohort” and identified six multitrajectories of men’s time spent employed, unemployed, and out of the labor force from ages 27 to 49. The authors identified one multitrajectory of steady work, three of increasing unemployment or time out of work, one of increasing steady work, and one of intermittent work. Contrary to conventional assumptions, only 41 percent of men followed a trajectory of continuous, high employment over the duration of their prime earning years. This suggests that most men do not achieve the “ideal worker norm,” raising implications for how research and policy conceptualize men’s work experiences.

“…As part of the disruption of the so-called normal biography, it is increasingly common for people to continue to study in adulthood. This is the case in Finland, where a large number of higher-education students combine their studies with various life domains such as paid work, childcare, care of the elderly, and hobbies [30]. In our study we use the concept family/life to describe the domain outside paid work and studying.…”

“…One informant explained that she set herself rules about time off, for example to secure time for her studies: "I have set some rules for myself, I have also been quite strict for the kids. So when the kids are in daycare, I also put the cell phone away, to prevent it crawling into my hand" (woman, aged [30][31][32][33][34][35]. The development of smartphones has increased the affordability of technology, and more self-regulation is needed.…”
