使用一种新的数据来源,我们估计了试图在没有证件的情况下越境进入美国的墨西哥移民被捕的可能性。在1965年至期间,我们发现逮捕的平均概率为0.35,证实了早先的估计。然后,我们应用年度概率来估计墨西哥无证移民的总量,并对这些数字进行调整,以得出无证净流入的估计值。
Using a new source of data, we estimate the probability of apprehension among Mexican migrants attempting to cross into the United States without documents. Over the period 1965-1989 we found an average apprehension probability of .35, confirming earlier estimates. We then applied annual probabilities to estimate the gross volume of undocumented Mexican migration and adjusted these figures to derive estimates of the net undocumented inflow.
