HIGH‐TECHNOLOGY JOBS AND WORKER MOBILITY*
通过分析高科技职业工人的迁移决策,研究高科技产业选址的决定因素,使用1975-1980年的数据估计了个人和地区特征对工人迁移的影响。
ABSTRACT. The premise of this paper is that one can discover much about the location determinants of high‐technology industry by examining the location (migration) decision of workers with high‐technology occupations. A model of the high‐technology worker migration decision is developed that permits estimation of worker response to both personal and area characteristics, the latter chosen to mirror location factors often cited by high‐technology firms as important for both the attraction and retention of their specialized work force. Logit estimates of this model between 1975 and 1980 are presented. The paper is concluded with a discussion of policy implications.
