Fig. 3: Sixteen sub-types of sequence distribution of educational trajectories of the 1976–1988 birth cohort (seqIplot).

The figure reveals the diverse state distributions across a range of sequence types using the seqIplot function, each displaying distinct traits. These characteristics highlight the complex interplay of the key school system and the bifurcation between academic and vocational tracks. The visualization provides a detailed insight into the heterogeneity of educational pathways within the cohort, emphasizing the influence of both structural factors and individual choices.
