Residence Spells and Migration: A Comparison for Men and Women
研究了法国农村年轻女性在离开全日制教育后首次迁移的概率，区分短距离和长距离迁移，并与男性结果对比，发现单身女性迁移概率显著低于非单身女性，且女性对工作的依附较弱、对家庭的依附较强。
This paper models migration probabilities in a duration context, where migration may occur at the end of an observed residence spell. The analysis is based on a sample of young women in rural locations in France, and relates to their first move after leaving full-time education. We distinguish between residence spells that end in long- as compared to short-distance moves. The results for women are compared with those in an earlier analysis for men. Single women are found to be significantly less likely than non-single (for example, married) women to move, and this effect is stronger than the corresponding effect for men. Women appear to develop weaker job attachments than men over time, but stronger attachments to their home. Finally, women appear to respond less strongly than men to employment status transitions.
