Synopsis

Educational mobility by women, particularly mid-age women, is rarely studied. In a previous analysis we found 53% of younger and 12% of mid-age women showed educational mobility over the course of six surveys and that this educational mobility influenced their physical and mental health in different ways. In this analysis we are interested in determining what baseline factors might predict or be associated with women who are or are not educationally mobile.
