AI总结:
研究发现印度迁移者更倾向于形成教育异质婚姻,迁移改变了婚姻市场偏好,家庭结构和婚姻池组成是关键因素。
摘要:
本文利用2020-21年周期劳动力调查数据,探讨内部迁移如何影响印度的教育 assortative 婚配模式。我们分析了迁移状态与 assortative 婚配类型的关联,即迁移者是否比非迁移者更可能形成同质(相似教育)或异质(不同教育)婚姻。结果显示迁移者更可能形成教育异质婚姻,特别是从城市到城市迁移者更倾向于低质婚姻(与受教育程度更高的伴侣结婚)。这些发现通过包括犯罪率、迁移网络和失业率在内的工具变量进行验证。家庭结构和婚姻池组成成为驱动迁移者教育异质婚姻的关键机制,表明迁移从根本上改变了婚姻形成偏好,远离传统的教育同质婚姻模式。
英文摘要:
This paper examines how internal migration influences educational assortative mating patterns in India using Periodic Labour Force Survey data (2020-21). We analyze the association of migrant status and type of assortative mating, that is whether migrants are more likely to engage in homogamous (similar education) or heterogamous (different education) marriages compared to non-migrants. Results show migrants are significantly more likely to form educationally heterogamous marriages, with urban-to-urban migrants particularly prone to hypogamy (marrying higher-educated partners). These findings are validated using instrumental variables including crime rates, migrant networks, and unemployment rates. Family structure and marriage pool composition emerge as key mechanisms driving educational heterogamy among migrants, suggesting migration fundamentally alters marital formation preferences away from traditional educational homogamy patterns.
