[The extent of disability pensions based on educational background. Disability pensions in the period 1967-1992 in a group born 1949 in Bergen].
The authors discuss recruitment to disability pension in groups of former pupils of different types of school in the school system in Bergen in the 1950s. The study is based on a cohort of 1,570 persons, all live births from 1940 of the mothers then residing in Bergen. This birth-cohort was followed up in the school system in Bergen at the age of 14 years and up to the end of 1992. Information on disability pensions was extracted from the files of the National Insurance Administration for the years 1967-92. The prevalence of disability pension of former pupils of different types of school reached a peak at the end of 1992, i.e. at the age of 52 years, as follows: Former pupils of the regular secondary schools, i.e. junior high school and continuation school, 6.8% and 12.7% respectively, former pupils of elementary school classes for slow learners 25.9%, of special schools for the educable mentally retarded 59.6% and for those receiving the services for the mentally retarded, 100%.
