有越来越多的政策和学术兴趣的条件，经验和跨越原籍国和目的地家庭的移民家庭的福祉。在南非，儿童和移民父母分散在多个家庭是一种常见的童年经历。然而，与更广泛的国际背景一样，对南非儿童与移民父母之间的社会和居住联系的定量分析受到限制，因为缺乏从一个以上家庭的角度记录家庭安排的现有数据。本文介绍了一个新的数据收集工作的起源和目的地家庭的农村夸祖鲁-纳塔尔移民，并解释了使用这些数据来检查多个家庭的儿童和父母的情况下的方法。为了说明这种形式的数据收集工作可能对家庭移民研究的贡献，本文还介绍了移民父母“留守”儿童的生活安排的结果;这是一个潜在的弱势群体，其安排具有挑战性，难以用现有的数据来源进行研究。实证结果表明，大多数留守儿童（75%）以前曾迁移，相当比例的流动儿童（25%）没有生活在父母的原籍或目的地家庭。调查结果突出表明，有必要仔细衡量留守儿童的情况，并表明关联数据有助于深入了解流动人口子女的居住安排。© 2014作者。《人口、空间和地点》，约翰·威利父子出版社（John Wiley & Sons Ltd）
There is growing policy and academic interest in the conditions, experiences, and well-being of migrant families stretched across origin and destination households. In South Africa, the dispersal of children and migrant parents across multiple households is a commonplace childhood experience. However, in common with the broader international context, quantitative analyses of the social and residential connections between children and migrant parents in South Africa have been limited by the lack of available data that document family arrangements from the perspective of more than one household. This paper describes a new data collection effort in the origin and destination households of migrants from rural KwaZulu-Natal and explains the methodology for using this data to examine multiple household contexts for children and parents. In order to illustrate the contribution that this form of data collection effort could make to family migration studies, the paper also presents results on the living arrangements of children ‘left behind’ by migrant parents; a potentially vulnerable group whose arrangements are challenging to examine with existing data sources. The empirical results show the majority (75%) of left behind children have previously migrated and a significant proportion of migrants' children (25%) were not living in their parent's origin or destination household. The findings highlight the need for careful measurement of the circumstances of left behind children and demonstrate the contribution of linked data for providing insights into the residential arrangements of migrants' children. © 2014 The Authors.
