“…Regional economic, social, and cultural factors affect the relative propulsion and attractiveness of origins and destinations, as well as the highly selective and asymmetric migration processes (Lee 1966;Williamson 1988;Rogers 1990;Stillwell 2008;Shen 2016Shen , 2017. Thus, measuring the impact of regional origin-and destination-specific characteristics on migration flows can not only help to identify important determinants and dynamic mechanisms of migration, but also to understand the vulnerability and resilience of this complex network (Griffith and Chun 2015;Crown, Jaquet, and Faggian 2018). More importantly, migration is a path-dependent process: Inter-personal relations, through network and herd effects, facilitate current and subsequent migration.…”

BACKGROUND Migration plays an increasingly crucial role in regional growth and development. However, most empirical studies fail to simultaneously capture the spatial and temporal aspects of migration flows, and thus fail to reveal how space-time dynamics shape pathdependent migration processes. OBJECTIVE This study attempts to incorporate space-time dimensions into a traditional gravity model and to measure the impact of regional socioeconomic changes on migration flows. Doing so allows us to better understand the space-time dynamics of complex migration processes. METHODS We construct a spatial dynamic panel data model for dyadic migration flows and decompose origin, destination, and spillover effects into their contemporaneous, short-, and long-term components. We then apply this approach to panel data of interprovincial migration flows in China from 1985 to 2015.
