Spatial Effect of Migration Between Provinces in Turkey

Summary/Abstract: Migration is an important phenomenon that changes the population structure of the regions. The fact that individuals leave their familiar living environment and cultural environment and move to regions they are not accustomed to creates an impact on society. When evaluated in terms of society, many effects of migration are listed, directly or indirectly. For this reason, many studies have been conducted on the causes, results and direction of migration from the 19th century to the present. Regional migration data for Turkey in this study that investigated the impact of migration between provinces distribution based on economic and demographic variables were studied to determine. It is believed that spatial analysis makes more accurate determinations within the boundaries of the geographical area characterized by spatial connections. Therefore, spatial autoregressive, spatial error and spatial Durbin models were preferred and estimated by maximum likelihood (ML) method. According to the findings, the change in the labour force, infant mortality rate and the number of students in a province may have an effect on net migration. In addition, it was determined that the number of students affects the net migration figures in the neighbourhood of the province.
