引证关系图 摘要: Many studies have confirmed that the separation of parents and children has a negative impact on children's growth. Although compulsory-education barriers for migrants' children have gradually disappeared in China, many families who migrate to cities have to leave their school-age children in their hometown. In this paper, using a logit model, we investigate which factors influence school-residential choice for migrants' children. The latest migration survey, Shanghai's 2011 Floating Population Dynamic Monitoring Survey, which contains data on 23, 517 migrant families, is used. We obtain two major findings. First, higher levels of household income and parents' education increase the probability of migrants' children receiving their education in the city. Our second finding, which has more policy implications, is that noncompulsory-education barriers still prevent many migrants' children from moving to the city. 入藏号: WOS:000321474300003 文献类型: Article 语种: English 作者关键词: migrants' children; school-residential choice; college entrance examination KeyWords Plus: CHINA; INEQUALITY; MIGRATION 通讯作者地址: Zhu, HF (通讯作者)
