| Abstract | This research uses the National Child Development Study to investigate the effects of adult learning upon 12 outcomes that act as proxies for health and social capital. To minimise selection bias [the authors] consider changes in outcomes rather than levels. [They] find that adult learning plays an important role in contributing to the small shifts in attitudes and behaviours that take place during mid-adulthood. The results hold as controls are added for demographic, educational and other background factors, as well as for changes in life circumstances during mid- adulthood. It is therefore very likely that there are substantive and genuine effects of adult learning. However, [the authors] do not suggest a purely one-way causal relationship. Evidence from additional analyses suggests rather that participation in adult learning is a very important element in positive cycles of development and progression. (DIPF/Orig.). |
