This study provides a detailed portrait of a large representative group of recent Filipino immigrants to the United States--their backgrounds before immigration their demographic and socioeconomic characteristics their family networks and their plans perceptions and hopes regarding life in the United States. The analysis which is based on scientifically selected samples of adult Filipinos who were issued immigrant visas in 1986 reveals the demogr…
Estimating the Immigration Multiplier: An Analysis of Recent Korean and Filipino Immigration to the United States
In recent years, the vast majority of new immigrants to the United States have been admitted under the family reunification provisions of immigration law. Under this system, the potential for future immigration depends primarily on the magnitude of previous immigration and the size and geographic distribution of family networks of previous immigrants. This article explores the effect of “chaining” through the petitioning of relatives on the deman…
Networks, Linkages, and Migration Systems
Recent theoretical interest in migration systems calls attention to the functions of diverse linkages between countries in stimulating, directing and maintaining international flows of people. This article proposes a conceptual framework for the nonpeople linkages in international migration systems and discusses the implications for population movement of the four categories and three types of linkages that define the framework

Migration of Women to Cities: The Asian Situation in Comparative Perspective
This article examines the participation of women in rural-to-urban migration, with a special focus on patterns in Asia. Most studies of migration have focused on male migrants or heads of households (See, reviews by Simmons et al., 1977; Yap, 1977 for example) on the assumption that females frequently migrate only as part of families and therefore the causes and consequences of their migration are those of their spouses and families. Recently, ho…

Influences on Childbearing Intentions Across the Fertility Career: Demographic and Socioeconomic Factors and the Value of Children
The influence of various determinants of childbearing intentions throughout the fertility career is investigated using data for 7 countries from the Value of Children project. It is hypothesized that several sets of determinants--age and childbearing experience socioeconomic characteristics and values and disvalues attached to children--have distinctive effects on fertility intentions at particular parities. Desire for another child and ideal fam…
International and Internal Migration Decision Making: A Value-Expectancy Based Analytical Framework of Intentions to Move from a Rural Philippine Province
The study compares determinants of internal and international migration intentions, drawing upon interview data from a sample of adults in Ilocos Norte, a largely rural province in the Philippines. A regression model is applied to test the relative determinants of intentions to migrate to Manila and to Hawaii. The study is based on a value-expectancy model of migration decision making. The results document the importance of subjective expectation…

Singapore: Rapid Fertility Transition in a Compact Society
Singapore has experienced a dramatic fertility decline over the past 2 decades with the average number of births per woman falling from over 6 to below 2. Factors contributing to this decline and discussed in this paper include government policies and programs designed to influence fertility directly; policies programs and practices in education female employment and public housing which influence fertility indirectly; and the changing values att…

Thailand: Using Family Planning Acceptors to Recruit New Cases
In 1968 at Chulalongkorn Hospital in Bangkok Thailand 695 IUD acceptors were given special service cards that would enable women who returned them to be given free preferential treatment at the clinic. The purpose of the study was to ascertain the effects that acceptors can have on promoting family planning to other women. 26% of the women had 1 or more of their cards returned. There was a 28% increase in insertions in the experimental provinces …
Thailand: An Analysis of Time and Distance Factors at an IUD Clinic in Bangkok
The effectiveness of word-of-mouth communication of a hospital IUD clinic in Bangkok in gaining new acceptors was studied. The service was offered at no cost and without publicity or formal education. Demand for the service grew slowly but by the end of 1 year 12137 insertions had been performed. Women from 54 of Thailands 71 provinces came to the clinic to obtain IUDs. Acceptors came from remote and inaccessible regions as well as urban areas. G…

Thailand: Monitoring the Commercial Distribution of Oral Contraceptives
To monitor the number of cycles of oral contraceptives distributed commercially in Thailand it is recommended that the data be collected quarterly from each pharmaceutical company. Data would benefit companies by showing their share of the market and the government by identifying trends. Early analyses demonstrate commercial distribution accounts for 94% of total oral contraceptive market and for 43% of the estimated total contraceptive practice …

Psychological Research and Population Policy: A Preview
Population policies are broad in scope and may be defined in various ways. One approach is to view population policy as a means for resolving potential conflicts between the individual and society, with respect to demographic behaviors. Such a definition emphasizes the need for psychological research approaches in the design, implementation, and evaluation of population policies. Types of psychological research relevant to population policy are d…
