Estimating spatial structure of migration in India using saturated log linear models
Authors

Abstract

Over the course of time, it is found that the major problems associated with population growth include differential impacts of migration among various regions, communities, city sub-urban area, etc. Indirect estimation becomes a better approach to study migration for the populations with inadequate or unreliable data. Log linear models have, earlier been discussed by Willekens (1983) [29] and Rogers (1975, 1995) [18, 23] to describe spatial interactions among populations.

The present study is comparison of inter-regional migration estimated from nested models. The saturated model explains inter-regional migration in a simpler form whereas; the Quasi Independence model proposes a rational, though coarse, procedure of estimation. Twenty-three percent of the total inter-regional out-migrants originate from Eastern region, which includes Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal. The study also indicates that there are multiple factors behind this dependency of inter-regional migration in India.
