Abstract | Utilizing data derived from two surveys (1967 and 1970) of the rural population of Novosibirsk province in the USSR, the migration plans and orientations of rural dwellers were compared with actual migration behavior to test the hypothesis that it is possible to predict migration patterns via orientation data. Three types of migration orientations were identified (highly immobile, indifferent, and highly motivated). The data were analyzed in terms of: reappraisals; personal and domestic motives; difficulties; advocated favorable rural conditions; occupational factors; financial considerations; unfavorable urban conditions; etc. Results indicated: potential migration could be used to predict actual rural to urban migration, since 64% of the sample were persons who had been, were, or would become rural to urban migrants; the decision to migrate sometimes disappeared altogether due to certain objective and subjective factors; actual, though not always recognized, attachment to the rural way of life was a strong factor influencing migration decisions (34% gave up their intentions to migrate); 41% of the most likely migrants had migrated; 92.2% of the migrants were satisfied with their new life; and 87.8% of the migrants did not want to return to rural places.
