Abstract

We study how education affects Black and White youth employment in the context of No Pass, No Drive (NPND) policies, which require that teens attend school to hold drivers' licenses. Using difference-in-differences estimation, we find that NPND policies increase Black teen employment by 6.7 p.p. without affecting labor force participation (LFP), while reducing White teen employment and LFP by 8.3 p.p. and 5.9 p.p., respectively. We find similar, but smaller effects for Black and White adults ages 18–25. By increasing school enrollment, NPND policies cause White youths to exit the labor force, increasing labor market tightness and improving job finding for Black youths.

青年劳动力市场中的教育、排挤和黑白就业：无证驾驶政策的证据

我们研究了在 "无证不开车"（NPND）政策背景下，教育如何影响黑人和白人青少年的就业，该政策要求青少年必须上学才能持有驾照。通过差分估算，我们发现 NPND 政策在不影响劳动力参与（LFP）的情况下将黑人青少年就业率提高了 6.7 个百分点，而将白人青少年就业率和劳动力参与率分别降低了 8.3 个百分点和 5.9 个百分点。对于 18-25 岁的黑人和白人成年人，我们发现了类似但较小的影响。通过提高入学率，NPND 政策导致白人青少年退出劳动力市场，增加了劳动力市场的紧张程度，并改善了黑人青少年的求职状况。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
