This study uses the interactional community approach to examine the effects of community attachment and quality of life on migration intention in rural communities using Pennsylvania and Taiwanese data. The purpose of this research is to examine whether the determinants of migration intentions vary in different cultural settings. The following research questions are addressed: (1) How and to what extent does community attachment influence migration? (2) To what extent does quality of life help explain the effect of community attachment on migration intention in rural communities? (3) Under different cultural and structural conditions, do the effects of community attachment and quality of life on migration intention differ while controlling for individual sociodemographic characteristics?

520 $a This study uses the interactional community approach to examine the effects of community attachment and quality of life on migration intention in rural communities using Pennsylvania and Taiwanese data. The purpose of this research is to examine whether the determinants of migration intentions vary in different cultural settings. The following research questions are addressed: (1) How and to what extent does community attachment influence migration? (2) To what extent does quality of life help explain the effect of community attachment on migration intention in rural communities? (3) Under different cultural and structural conditions, do the effects of community attachment and quality of life on migration intention differ while controlling for individual sociodemographic characteristics?
520 $a Because of the difficulty of obtaining identical indicators for community attachment and quality of life, this thesis started from a model that examines the common determinants---the objective indicators of quality of life and personal factors---of migration. Migration intention was used as the dependent variable. Indicators of community attachment were added in the second stage to test the intermediate effects of the common determinants, while a measure of subjective quality of life was added in the final stage to obtain a full comparison model. Results of this study generally supported the six hypotheses. Better quality of life and higher degree of community attachment were found to help reduce migration intention. The hypothesis that quality of life mediates the effect of community attachment on migration intention was supported in the Pennsylvania data, but not in the Taiwanese data. Conclusions, discussions, and implications of these results are provided.
