Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The early drop-out literature has traditionally focused on the demographic and lifestyle characteristics of individuals who terminate early from their educational pursuits, such as age, socioeconomic status, and high-risk behaviors. While emotional and familial factors may play a role in the decision to drop out, they are not the primary focus of the literature. Similarly, while gender and functioning level may be associated with drop-out rates, they are not the key variables that have been studied in this area.
