DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Links to concepts of social networks and social support have been crucial to advances in migration theory and research. Social ties, and the social networks based on the structure of these ties, affect whether potential migrants leave, where they go, and the likelihood of return. Substantial research has been done on migration and social networks in places of destination. But little is known about ties to and within the origin, most likely because the data requirements are so severe (prospective social network data and then following migrants to destination). The proposed research fills this gap. It uses a unique, prospective, longitudinal data set that has complete social network data at origin measured in 1994 for 51 villages in Nang Rong district, Northeast Thailand, and then follows people over time (to 2000) in origin and destinations. We propose three related analyses. The first examines the effects of social ties to the origin on the likelihood of being a migrant in 2000 among those who were resident in the village in 1994, testing hypotheses about the implications of access to information and other resources, obligations, and relative deprivation. The second focuses on return migration. For those who were present in the village in the 1984 round of data collection but absent in 1994, what are the effects of ties to the origin on the likelihood that the migrant is living back in the village in 2000? Hypotheses about return migration focus on the obligational components of these ties. The third analysis will investigate the effects of social ties year by year between 1994 and 2000 to study migration over short intervals and to test hypotheses about the effects of the economic crisis in July 1997. The third analysis is based on a subset of villages having life history data for both migrants and non-migrants.

描述（由申请人提供）：与社交网络和社会支持概念的联系对移徙理论和研究的进展至关重要。社会联系以及建立在这些联系结构基础上的社交网络影响到潜在移徙者是否离开、去哪里以及返回的可能性。对目的地的移徙和社交网络进行了大量研究。但人们对移民与原籍国的联系以及原籍国内部的联系知之甚少，这很可能是因为对数据的要求非常严格（预期的社交网络数据，然后跟踪移民到目的地）。这项研究填补了这一空白。它使用了一个独特的，前瞻性的，纵向的数据集，有完整的社会网络数据，在1994年测量的51个村庄在Nang Rong区，泰国东北部的起源，然后随着时间的推移（到2000年）在起源和目的地的人。我们提出了三个相关的分析。第一个研究的影响，社会关系的起源的可能性，是一个移民在2000年的那些谁是在1994年居住在村里，测试假设的影响，获得信息和其他资源，义务，和相对剥夺。第二个重点是返回移徙。对于那些在1984年的数据收集中在村里但在1994年不在的人，与原籍的联系对移民在2000年回到村里生活的可能性有什么影响？关于回移的假设集中在这些联系的义务成分上。第三项分析将逐年调查1994年至2000年期间社会联系的影响，以研究短期内的移徙情况，并检验关于1997年7月经济危机影响的假设。第三个分析是基于一个子集的村庄生活史数据的移民和非移民。
