我们调查的命题，疾病构成的障碍，一个人的能力，利用移民来对冲商业周期。我们采用的数据移民，地区失业率和健康状况从10年（1984-1993年）的美国小组研究的收入动态。我们的结果提供了相当大的支持这一命题。男性的证据最强，但我们也发现已婚女性的证据较弱。这些结果表明，在其他条件不变的情况下，当区域经济扩张时，一个地区的总体健康结果应该得到改善。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
We investigate the proposition that illness poses as an obstacle to one's ability to use migration to hedge the business cycle. We employ data on migration, regional unemployment rates and health status from 10 years (1984-1993) of the US Panel Study of Income Dynamics. Our results provide considerable for support this proposition. The evidence is the strongest for men, but we also find weaker evidence for married women. These results suggest that-ceterus paribusaggregate health outcomes in an area should improve when the regional economy expands. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
