A Multi-Disciplinary Interpretation Of Migration: Amenity Capitalization In Both Labor And Land Markets, Philip E. Graves, Robert L. Sexton, Thomas A. Knapp
A Multi-Disciplinary Interpretation Of Migration: Amenity Capitalization In Both Labor And Land Markets, Philip E. Graves, Robert L. Sexton, Thomas A. Knapp
Robert L Sexton
Various disciplines have produced models to explain and predict migration. A model is presented providing a taxonomy through which interdisciplinary insights can be synthesized. The imperfect information view emphasizes the role of wage differentials as representing arbitragible real utility differences. The perfect information approach holds that wage and rent differentials are compensating differentials, eliminating real utility variation over space. Moreover, markets compress diverse aspects of spatial variation in welfare, otherwise difficult to quantify, into compensating wage and rent differentials. Rents tend to capitalize the variation in a host of amenities, thereby substantially reducing the need for a potential migrant to …

Dr. Edward D. Ives Papers
On the evening of March 19, 1984. a large crowd of Island folklore enthusiasts braved a snowy night and the threat of a power blackout to attend a lecture by "Sandy" Ives, author of books on Island folksong makers Larry Gorman and Lawrence Doyle. The event was memorable; Professor Ives shared his subject with new friends and old, told the stories and sang the songs. The lecture was part of the Second Annual Island Lecture Series.

Migration is a complex social phenomenon whose causes, motivations and consequences are diverse. The economist, therefore, cannot presume the monopoly of its explanation. He, like specialists of other disciplines, emphasizes the variables of his concern. This monograph treats migration from an economic point of view; migration is conceptualized as a means of promoting efficient utilization of resources., an fovestment aiming at increasing the productivity of human resources, an investment which has costs and which also generates return (Schultz, 1971: 18, Bowan et al, 1967:875-98; Sjaastad, 1962:8-83.) It is an attempt to appraise Egypt's policy to invest in huma.n capital through …

Migrant-Nonmigrant Differentials, Housing Type, Community Satisfaction And Migration: A Study Of Nonmetropolitan Communities In Utah Within The Context Of Population Turnaround, Stephen Hua-Wah Kan
Migrant-Nonmigrant Differentials, Housing Type, Community Satisfaction And Migration: A Study Of Nonmetropolitan Communities In Utah Within The Context Of Population Turnaround, Stephen Hua-Wah Kan
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Three major socio-demographic aspects of community life were examined in nonmetropolitan Utah within the context of the post 1970's population turnaround. They are: differentials by migrant status and housing type, patterns of community satisfaction, and migration expectations and migration.
Findings indicate that groups of residents with different migrant status and/or housing type have unique patterns in socio-economic status, social integration and community attachment, and potential contributions to the community. It was argued that these phenomena can be largely explained by the exchange theory.
With respect to the pattern of community satisfaction, it was found that the mobile home dwellers' level …

The Impact Of Rural Nebraska Industrial Development On The Migration Of Rural Youth, Armin K. Ludwig, Gene M. Hanlon, David R. Dimartino

For more than a century Americans have migrated from the rural communities in which they were raised, but by 1970 this process had begun to change. Nebraska, however, has not reflected this change, and Nebraskans have continued to leave non-metropolitan areas in large numbers. By 1976 the State stood alone among seven central and southern plains states in having non-metropolitan population losses (Miller, 1978).
The Study Of Intended Distance Based On The Migration Intention Of Utah High School Senior Students, Pyoung Kim
The Study Of Intended Distance Based On The Migration Intention Of Utah High School Senior Students, Pyoung Kim
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This study examines the relationship between the distance 1975 high school seniors intended to move, referred to as intended distance, and socioeconomic and psychological factors. The research is based on information collected from separate samples of about 900 graduating seniors from the rural, urban and metropolitan areas of Utah. Utilizing the type of boundary that would be crossed in carrying out an intended move as the proxy for distance, it was found that 14 percent of the youth intended to live most of the rest of their lives out of Utah. While rural youth were more likely to intend to …

Net Migration As A Factor Affecting Metropolitan Growth In Utah: 1950 To 1970, Kooros M. Mahmoudi
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The objectives of this study were to measure net in- or out-migration to or from the Standard Metropolitan Areas of Utah between 1950-60 and 1960-70, and to study selected socio-economic factors relating to migration and the growth of SMSA's. Specifically, the factors of migration and natural population increase were central in an analysis of population redistribution. Selected demographic characteristics of the migrants such as sex and age were also studied to establish their impact upon the SMSA population structure. The relationship between population change in the SMSA's and economic factors of labor force supply and employment were also reviewed.

Factors Affecting Relocation In Response To Reservoir Development, Rabel J. Burdge, Richard L. Ludtke
Factors Affecting Relocation In Response To Reservoir Development, Rabel J. Burdge, Richard L. Ludtke
KWRRI Research Reports
The focus of this paper is on the question of how rural people anticipate forced moves as a result of flood control projects and how they change their life in accepting separation from familiar surroundings.
A model of faced migration is presented which sees the variables of socioeconomic status, knowledge of reservoir projects, vested interests and the degree of identification with place of affected persons as producing differential apprehension over moving. Differential apprehension is then seen as producing different attitudes toward the project which will influence the type of migration plans.
To test this model of forced migration, data were …
Evaluation Of The Social Impact Of Reservoir Construction On The Residential Plans Of Displaced Persons In Kentucky And Ohio, Richard L. Ludtke, Rabel J. Burdge
Evaluation Of The Social Impact Of Reservoir Construction On The Residential Plans Of Displaced Persons In Kentucky And Ohio, Richard L. Ludtke, Rabel J. Burdge
KWRRI Research Reports
The states of Kentucky and Ohio have numerous reservoir projects at various stages of planning and construction. Each of the projects produces substantial social impact for the residents of the area and particularly for those persons affected by a loss of property and homes. This impact is not uniform in that people respond differently to displacement and the methods of adjusting relocation are known to differ among people.
This research was initiated to develop and test a model for explaining migration under such conditions. The model includes a consideration of people's potential for transferring existing statuses to new residences, the …

On The Season, Marty Mcdonald
Honors Theses
In a recent report to a subcommittee of the Committee on Labor and Public Welfare of the United States Senate, Father John A. Wagner made an apt comparison of Texas migrant workers and "tumble weeds that roll helter-skelter,... in search of that constantly eluding hope that they will have a chance to make enough to keep their families alive." Much of the migrant farm labor in the United States make their winter quarters in sunny Florida. By May they are moving out to follow crops and get "on the season." They travel to South Carolina, and on up to New …

Changing Settlement Patterns In A Dry Land Wheat Farming Region: The Mansfield Washington Area, Helen Jayne
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purpose of this study was to trace the change in settlement patterns in an area located in the semiarid plateau region of Eastern Washington and to determine the cause of such a change. Little has been written about the settlement of this area. Therefore, an attempt has been made to learn what changes in settlement have been made and to explain them.
