title: A regression analysis of migration to urban areas of a less-developed country:  the case of Iran.
abstract: The factors affecting internal migration in Iran are analyzed using a regression-based model.  "The model used is of the 'push-pull' variety stated in the form of a single equation explaining out-migration from a given region of origin (i) to all other regions (j) in the country." The focus is on the period prior to 1976.
