“…The impact of socio-economic and family factors is enhanced by one's geographical and residential circumstances: the risk of becoming a NEET is higher in rural areas compared to urban ones, at least in Eastern European countries (Table 4) (Kovarek & Sata, 2021). In rural areas, especially in isolated communities, young people tend to drop out of education even if they have a high chance of success intellectually.…”

“…Walther's original typology excludes Eastern European countries, the great majority of which has not yet established an STWT regime. There are countries, such as Hungary, whose regimes are closer to the Continental model (see, e.g., Kovarek & Sata, 2021), while others, such as Bulgaria or Romania, have regimes that resemble the sub-protective model (Buttler, 2020). However, the STWT regimes are less consolidated in Eastern European countries and political changes and economic crises have contributed to a certain fluidity of the regimes in place.…”

This study investigates the connection between the reasons why some young people end their education without attaining a university degree and the effect of this decision on the probability of becoming a NEET in a set of European countries. Young people face the highest degree of disadvantage in the Mediterranean and East European countries, whereas in Continental European countries the school-to-work transition is smooth. We use the ad hoc module of the 2016 Labour Force Survey (LFS) and focus on young people aged 15 to 24. Our analysis reveals a positive relationship between the decision to drop out of education for health or family reasons and the probability of becoming a NEET. Conversely, when the reason for not completing university education is the desire to start working, and when the individuals who dropped out of university education gathered work experience during this period, the probability of becoming a NEET decreases significantly.
