Summary of Expected Direction and/or Magnitude of Regression Coefficients by Hypotheses
| Coefficienta | Expected by Hypothesis | Tested in | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Migrant Social Capital Resources | |||
| Amount of migrant trips | |||
| Prior trips by household members (strong ties) | + | The greater the amount, diversity, and accessibility of resources, the greater the propensity to migrate. | Model 1 |
| Prior trips by village members (weak ties) | + | ||
| Diversity of migrant destinations | |||
| Diversity of trips by household members | + | ||
| Diversity of trips by village members | + | ||
| Diversity of migrant occupations | |||
| Diversity of occupations by household members | + | ||
| Diversity of occupations by village members | + | ||
| Accessibility of migrant trips | |||
| Equality in distribution of village trips | + | ||
| Migrant Social Capital Sources | |||
| Household trips > Village trips | The stronger the tie to the source, the greater the propensity to migrate. | Model 1 | |
| Household trips < Village trips | The weaker the tie to the source, the greater the propensity to migrate. | Model 1 | |
| Migrant Social Capital Recipients | |||
| Attributes of recipients | The greater the recipient’s relative experience, the greater the propensity to migrate. | Model 2 | |
| Relative migrant experience (RME) of individual | + | ||
| Interactions Among Amount, Diversity, and Accessibility of Resources | |||
| Household trips × Destination diversity of household trips | + | The greater the diversity and accessibility of resources, the greater the effect of their amount and the greater the propensity to migrate. | Model 3 |
| Village trips × Destination diversity of village trips | + | ||
| Household trips × Occupation diversity of household trips | + | ||
| Village trips × Equality of village trips | + | ||
| Interactions Between Resources and Recipients | |||
| Household trips × RME | – | The greater the recipient’s relative experience, the less the effect of resources from other sources on the propensity to migrate. | Model 4 |
| Village trips × RME | – |

For odds ratios, + means greater than 1, and – means smaller than 1.
