Gender and Inter-province Migration:Evidence from College Graduates

本文基于2013年全国高校毕业生就业状况调查数据，利用统计描述和计量回归方法对高校毕业生跨省流动状况进行了性别比较。研究内容包括流动比例、流动方向、流动收益、流动成本、流动影响因素。主要结论如下：第一，女性跨省流动的比例显著低于男性。男性的流动率为50.8%，而女性的流动率为39.1%，比男性低11.7个百分点。第二，无论是男性还是女性，跨省流动都显著增加了收入。第三，经济因素是跨省流动的主要原因之一。第四，人口特征变量、人力资本变量、家庭社会经济背景都是显著影响跨省流动和收入的因素。Based on a 2013 national scale survey data set and methods of statistical descriptive and econometric analysis, this paper has given an empirical analysis on the frequency, flowing direction, return, cost and influential factors of college graduates' migration.
