Abstract	The National Educational Panel Study (NEPS) surveys and tests, next to adults, undergraduates, and newborns, Kindergarten children and students within their institutional contexts. Individuals who decided to participate in the panel study can refuse participation in specific waves or drop out completely. Weighting adjustments are usually applied to account for nonparticipation. Within the institutional cohorts of the NEPS, these adjustments take clustering at the institutional level into account. In NEPS, information on children is enriched by interviews with their parents. Thus, dealing with two distinct but possibly interdependent participation decisions has to be regarded by a joint modeling approach. The results of models analyzing the participation propensity provide insights concerning factors influencing the participation probability. In general, few potential determinants affect participation decisions. These include place of residence, language spoken at home, age, and having missing values in personal or migration-related characteristics. For later waves the participation status of the previous wave has proved to be a good predictor. Moreover, being surveyed and tested within the institutional context positively influences participation decisions. (Orig.).
