Abstract

The very few studies on the empirical relationship between time preference and migration have been developed in small samples or without controlling for individuals’ cognitive skills. This study uses data from a large, nationally representative survey with information on time preferences and cognitive skills to investigate whether lifetime cross-region migrants in Spain are less impatient than individuals who choose to remain in their birth region. The empirical model incorporates predicted probabilities of misclassifying the migrant status. Results suggest that the effect of impatience on the likelihood of ever migrating is negative though diminishing, and that it is smaller than the effect estimated for international migrants.
是否存在耐心迁移溢价?
关于时间偏好与移民之间的经验关系的研究很少是在小样本中进行的,或者没有控制个人的认知技能。这项研究使用了一项具有全国代表性的大型调查数据,其中包含了时间偏好和认知技能的信息,以调查西班牙的终身跨地区移民是否比选择留在出生地区的人更没有耐心。实证模型包含了对移民身份错误分类的预测概率。结果表明,不耐烦对移民可能性的影响是负面的,尽管正在减弱,而且比对国际移民的影响估计要小。
