Abstract
Background: Grit is essential to favour perseverance and passion to achieve long-term goals. Our study aimed to explore the features of individual aspects of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET) as personal attributes.
Participants and procedure: Participants numbered 159, were in the age range 18-35, and 54.1% were female. A structured web-based interview was conducted using a dedicated online form.
Results: We investigated the self-perception of NEET regarding the learning and practical abilities. NEET were found to be confident in practical activities. The working interest of NEET seemed to be very high for public employment, but not smart working.
Conclusions: NEET youth needs to be more involved in a developmental perspective to discover their own cognitive and behavioural abilities in order to be confident and focused on achieving personal growth in social engagement and the labour market.
