Background The transition to adulthood is critical for future wellbeing and in determining whether Indonesia will reap the demographic dividend. There are gaps in the description of Indonesian youth's transition to adulthood and the identification of factors that affect the transition. Purpose The aims of the study were to: 1) Analyze the occurrence, timing, and sequencing of the events marking the transition to adulthood by sex and birth cohort; 2) Examine the individual and family-level predictors of the probability of the events marking the transition to adulthood; 3) Analyze the occurrence of migration for education or work reason by sex and birth cohort, and examine the individual and family-level determinants of the probability of migration for education or work reason; and 4) Examine the interdependency of the events marking the transition to adulthood Methods The study analyzed 9,748 individuals born between 1970 and 1985 who participated in the Indonesian Family Life Survey that has been conducted five times between 1993 and 2015. The discrete-time logit model was specified to estimate the conditional probability of the event and examine the effect of individual and family-level predictors. The multivariate probit model for leaving school, starting a job, and getting married was specified to examine the interdependence of the three events and account for the possible endogeneity of educational attainment in the probability of employment and marriage. Results The 1980-1985 birth cohort stayed longer in school and started full-time employment earlier compared to the 1970-1979 birth cohort. Women of the 1980-1985 birth cohort stayed single longer by pushing their marriage into the early twenties. The 1980-1985 birth cohort had higher odds to migrate to pursue education or employment. The majority of young people in this study followed a trajectory that is considered normative in Indonesia, i.e. finishing school first, followed by employment and marriage. Father's education was significantly associated with the probability of leaving school and starting a job for both sexes and the probability of getting married and giving birth for women. The decisions to leave school and to start working, and to leave school and to marry are interdependent for women. For men, the transitions out of school and to employment are interdependent. Conclusion The lives of Indonesian youth are changing in terms of their school and work participation and their mobility to pursue education and employment. Family background, particularly father's education, matters in the transition to adulthood. While the gaps in education and employment between sexes narrow; men and women experienced the transition to adulthood differently. This study offers additional insights for future research and policies on the transition to adulthood in Indonesia.
