对移徙者选择性的研究在很大程度上忽视了更广泛的体制进程,这些进程决定了不同背景的移徙者在多大程度上确实被积极选择。对于高技能移徙者来说尤其如此,他们的选择可能不是以移徙为条件,而是以教育为条件。本文探讨了这种局限性,通过研究个人特征,这往往被视为未观察到的选择性,在欧洲的一个特定的教育移民流,即中国高等教育学生。为此,我们使用了一个独特的代表性多国数据集,其中包括约8,000名中国国际学生及其在中国,英国和德国的本土出生的同行。我们的证据排除了对移民的积极选择,如野心,创造力,冒险精神或独立思想。这支持了我们的论点,即在全球范围内,个体的代理模式的流行是嵌入在高等教育中的。
The research in migrant selectivity largely overlooks the broader institutional processes that shape the extent to which migrants from different backgrounds are indeed positively selected. This is particularly true in the case of highly skilled migrants, whose selection may not be conditioned by migration but by education. This paper deals with this limitation by studying individual characteristics, which are often treated as unobserved selectivity, among a specific flow of educational migrants in Europe, namely, Chinese higher education students. To do so, we use a unique representative multi-country dataset of about 8,000 Chinese international students and their native-born counterparts in China, the UK, and Germany. Our evidence rules out positive selection of migrants on individuality traits such as ambition, creativity, or being a risk-taker or independently minded. This supports our argument that the prevalence of agentic models of individuality is embedded in tertiary education on a global level.
