“…Variables were chosen a priori based on previous findings linking adolescent friendships and educational expectations (Catalano et al, 2004;Iovu et al, 2018;Jose et al, 2012;Schmidt et al, 2016;Stoddard & Pierce, 2015). The analysis included behavioural and descriptive characteristics, such as alcohol use, academic achievement, mother's education and family bonding which could provide alternative bases for both educational expectations and friendship formation.…”

Adolescent educational expectations predict educational attainment, which leads to labour-market success. Given peers' similarity in educational expectations, it is methodologically challenging to differentiate whether adolescents select friends who are similar in their educational aspirations or whether adolescents influence each other's educational expectations. To overcome this methodological challenge, the analysis utilizes stochastic actor-based modelling. This study uses survey data from the U.S. National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health). The results show that selection effects may be more prominent than influence effects in the relationship between educational expectation and adolescent friendships. Educational interventions to promote friendship formation with peers with higher educational aspirations may not result in greater educational expectations. Family bonding is associated with greater educational aspirations. Greater support of the families through work-life balance public policies and tangible strategies for improving family bonding opportunities in schools and in local communities may be needed to increase educational aspirations among adolescents.

“…First of all, motivation (Dietrich and Salmela-Aro 2013), which is a key factor to favor the transition from school to work (Symonds et al 2019). Motivation is strictly related to young people's educational aspirations (Hegna 2014), future expectations (Iovu et al 2018), and investing in active efforts in goal pursuit (Lechner et al 2016), which are important determinant of educational choices and outcomes. The motivational factor is a determinant of job search intensity, which is a very important variable in terms of the possibility of changing the NEET status (Vanoverberghe et al 2008).…”

Using data from 103 Italian provinces, we investigated the relationship between local/regional development, and NEET. We constructed an indicator of cultural capital and another of economic capital and we studied their relation with the NEET rate. Covariance Structure Analysis with Generalized Least Squares estimation was employed, considering a three time-points retrospective model. Results indicate a consistent protective effect of the economic capital on the NEET rate, both in the short run (2 years) and in the medium run (10 years). However, this effect has been obtained in the Central provinces (at 2 and 10 years) and Southern provinces (at 10 years), but not in the Northern provinces. A mediation analysis indicated that, historically, the cultural capital may partly mediate the effect of the economic capital. We did not detect a significant direct effect of the cultural capital on the NEET rate, which is strongly mediated by the action of the economic capital. Together, these results denote that the economic capital is a strong predictor of NEET, but not in very competitive economic areas.

“…Pada aspek keluarga, persepsi remaja tentang interaksi yang hangat, mendukung, dan dapat diandalkan antara mereka dan orang tua dapat memberikan model perilaku positif yang kemudian dimasukkan ke dalam konsep diri dan kemudian akan mengarahkan harapan mereka kepada masa depan (McCabe & Barnett, 2000). Sejalan dengan itu, Iovu, Hărăguș, & Roth (2018) mengatakan bahwa pengembangan ekspektasi/harapan masa depan seseorang secara dinamis dipengaruhi oleh hubungannya dengan orang lain yang signifikan (misalnya, anggota keluarga atau teman). Pada remaja panti asuhan, pengasuh merupakan sosok signifikan yang memiliki tugas dan tanggungjawab sebagai pengganti orangtua.…”

Future orientation can be a protective factor for teenagers, especially orphanage adolescents who live with economic difficulties and are in members of minority groups. In adolescence the core domain of the future orientation which the major concern is related to education and occupation. The formation of future orientation can be influenced by various external or contextual factors or stated as contextual support and barrier. This research was conducted to find out the role of contextual support and barrier to the future orientation related to education and work in the orphanage adolescence in Jakarta and Bekasi. This study is an associative study with a total of 105 adolescents living in an orphanage, obtained by incidental sampling technique. This study uses adaptation of Future Expectation Scale for Adolescents (FESA) and Contextual Support and Barrier measuring instruments. The results of research showed that contextual support contributed 8,7 % to the future orientation related to education and occupation on the orphanage adolescence. Therefore, it can be said that when the orphanage adolescence feel supported by the environment (contextual factors) it can help them form a future orientation related to positive education and occupation. This result is expected to be a reference for the orphanage and the government in making programs that can help orphanage adolescent to get support and form a positive future orientation.
