Summary
This report describes and evaluates the methods, procedures, techniques, and activities that produced the fourth (1992) follow-up of the High School and Beyond (HS&B) study. HS&B began in 1980 as the successor to the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972 (NLS-72). NLS-72 data spanned the period 1972 through 1986. HS&B now spans the period 1980-1992. Without a large increase in funding, both of these studies will not benefit from another follow-up. Hence, for HS&B, this report is the final documentation for this vast, rich dataset.
