| NLTS2 Conceptual Framework and Research Questions | Now | html, pdf | The NLTS2 conceptual framework and research questions allow analyses of the relationships between NLTS2 data and data generated by OSEP's Special Education Elementary Longitudinal Study (SEELS). The design of NLTS2 also reflects a careful alignment with the first National Longitudinal Transition Study (NLTS). By including many of the same research questions and data items that appeared in NLTS, the new study will provide important information about the ways in which secondary education and results and postschool experiences have changed for youth with disabilities in the previous decade or more. This document lists the questions the study will seek to answer. |
