| Abstract | A relatively new area of psychological investigation is the identification of biographical and psychological variables which contribute to an individual's decision to move from or to stay in a geographical area. This study is an attempt to utilize biographical and psychological data on 50 college students in a multiple linear regression to predict a newly defined Mobility Index, which was derived from having subjects place themselves into groups according to mobility plans. Using the multiple linear regression (MLR) model, significantly better than chance prediction of Mobility Index was obtained from six biographical items, from three psychological scales, and from a combination of the psychological and biographical items. The variables investigated and the results obtained are summarized in tabular form. Using a hold-out cross validation sample (N=10), a cross validation R=.63 (RSQ=.40) was obtained. (Author) |
