[Selectivity of rural migrants from the Sierra of Ecuador].
"This paper examines characteristics of recent rural-urban out-migrants leaving households in the Sierra of Ecuador.  A large, household survey focussing specifically on migration is utilized, allowing detailed crosstabulations by sex and origin-destination combination and providing information about migrants generally not found in more generic surveys or censuses.  Differences are noted between migrants and non-migrants in basic demographic characteristics, reasons for migrating, and economic activities prior to and subsequent to moving.  Differences in the characteristics of migrants moving between various types of place of origin and place of destination are also noted." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
