چکیده
Migration of labor in response to structural changes in the U.S. economy is explored. An empirical study of the migration decision and wage determination is used to evaluate: 1) whether unemployment plays a larger role in motivating the decision to migrate than spatial wage differences and 2) whether the population can be characterized as homogeneous regarding migration and wage determination. The results are used to evaluate other studies involving the effects of migration on wages. The effects of the differential mobility of capital and labor is discussed. Policy is suggested regarding improving labor mobility and impeding capital flight.

Mean percentages of the predicted lung function indices (FVC, FEV, and FEF 25-75) showed a workshift decrement, particularly evident in the evening shift. A workweek effect was shown in that no recovery in mean %FEV1 and %FEF-25-75 was...
