A Behavioral Model of International Labor and Nonlabor Migration: The Case of Turkish Movements to West Germany, 1960-1986
In this paper behavioral models of international labor and nonlabor migration are presented. The models are based on the concept of chain migration, where the immigrant stock, differentiated by the duration of stay, induces and directs future migration flows. Three roles of the immigrant stock in inducing the inflow of potential migrants are identified: provider of assimilation aid; transmitter of information; and source of family reunification. …
A Predictive Model of Residential Mobility and Residential Segregation
Classification issues in the analysis of complex travel behavior
Geographic Regularities in Residential Search Behavior
Households exhibit strong spatial regularities in their residential search behavior; moreover these regularities arise from two distinct but interrelated sources: the spatial variation in the number of vacancies meeting particular housing needs and spatial biases in the household's search strategies. Three models of the search process are evaluated against observed search behavior for a sample of prospective home buyers in the San Fernando Valley…
Rich Man-Poor Man in Von Thunen's Isolated State
The market town in von Tiunen's Isolated Slate is assumed to be populated with two classes of people—poor people and rich people. Welfare implications are then derived from the von Thunen model con
Sources of Spatial Variation in Residential Mobility Rates
Calibrating a Model of the Decision to Move
A previously published paper established that neither the cumulative-inertia hypothesis nor the independent-trials models were adequate explanations of observed mobility rates for individuals with different prior residential histories (Clark and Huff, 1977). An alternative model of the probability of moving incorporated the independent-trials model and cumulative inertia as special cases (Huff and Clark, 1978). In the present paper the model is r…
Cumulative Stress and Cumulative Inertia: A Behavioral Model of the Decision to Move
A model of the probability of moving which incorporates aspects of the independent-trials process, the stage in the life cycle, and the concept of cumulative inertia is formulated. The model is based on the interaction of two forces. On the one hand there is a certain resistance to moving (cumulative inertia) and on the other the household may be dissatisfied with certain attributes of the present dwelling and its surroundings (residential stress…
Some Empirical Tests of Duration-of-Stay Effects in Intraurban Migration
Although there have been several empirical tests of the cumulative inertia hypothesis, the more recent theoretical work by Ginsberg (1973), McFarland (1970), and Spilerman (1972b) suggests that whereas these tests may support the existence of duration-of-stay effects they do not prove the existence of cumulative inertia as defined by McGinnis (1968). The tests are replicated and a new group of tests are applied to a data set of individual househo…
