摘要

葡萄牙高等教育的在职学生，包括年龄较大、职业生涯处于成熟阶段的学生，以及年轻和刚就业的学生，辍学率高，是教育政策的主要关切之一。为这些学生确定学术道路的驱动因素对于促进成功的教育、提高劳动生产率和商业竞争力至关重要。利用葡萄牙一所高等教育机构1561名在职学生的个人、课程和就业变量的广泛纵向数据库，我们进行了持续时间分析，以确定和比较导致高等教育中成熟和年轻在职学生辍学和毕业风险的因素。研究结果表明，总体而言，年轻的在职学生更积极地受到经济援助、他们对课程的动机以及寻找新的合格职业的愿望的影响，而成熟的在职学生则更依赖于社会和学术融合。“课外”经历中知识/技能的积累似乎对学习成绩有积极贡献。

Mature vs Young Working Students: Similarities, Differences, and Drivers of Graduation and Dropout

The high dropout rate among working students in higher education in Portugal, including both those who are older and at a mature stage in their professional careers and those who are young and recent workers, is one of the main concerns of educational policy. Identifying the drivers of the academic pathway for these students is essential to promote successful education and increase labour productivity and business competitiveness. Using an extensive longitudinal database of personal, course, and employment variables of 1,561 working students from a Portuguese higher education institution, we perform a duration analysis to determine and compare the factors that drive the dropout and graduation risks of mature and young working students in higher education. The results show that, in general, young working students are more positively influenced by financial aid, their motivation for the course, and the desire to find a new qualified professional career, while mature working students depend more on social and academic integration. The accumulation of knowledge/skills in the 'out of class' experience seems to contribute positively to academic performance.

期刊介绍： Studia Paedagogica publishes original papers on education, upbringing and learning from all spheres of social life. The papers are theoretical, but mainly empirical as the journal publishes research undertaken in the Czech Republic and abroad. The journal publishes only original research papers and is open to both experienced and early researchers. Early researchers can publish their papers in the section Emerging Researchers of the journal and are offered intensive editorial support. The journal is interdisciplinary - it covers current topics in educational research while at the same time providing scope for studies grounded in other social sciences. The journal publishes four issues per year, two issues are dedicated to general interest articles and are in Czech, two issues are on a single topic and are in English. Studia Paedagogica is a peer reviewed journal published by the Masaryk University. The executive editors are members of the staff of the Department of Educational Sciences and the editorial board comprises of international experts. The name of the journal is derived from the name of its predecessor, Studia minora facultatis philosophicae universitatis brunensis (Sborník prací filozofické fakulty brněnské univerzity), which was issued from 1996 to 2008. However, the tradition of the journal dates much further back as the pedagogical-psychological series of the journal was published even between 1966 to 1995.
