Organisation framework for research on drop-out. Note: The figure organises phases, influencing factors, and perspectives of drop-out from vocational training. Researchers should clearly define which of the three phases are part of their analysis and indicate which sample perspective is taken for each respective phase. The general disciplinary research perspective should be stated as well. Here, the pictograms illustrate four examples: an economic, psychological, sociological, and pedagogical perspective (from left to right).
