This dissertation explores the effect of migration on marital timing and mate selection in the context of Thailand, where migration is a common passage to adulthood for both women and men. The study uses life history data and event history analysis to understand how premarital migration experience affects the likelihood of entry into marriage, and whether an individual marries a spouse from the same region, and how the migrant's job in the place of destination shapes the availability of marital partners. In contrast to most previous studies based on cross-sectional analyses, findings from longitudinal analyses in this study indicate that migration facilitates marriage. Migrants tend to marry earlier than non-migrants. Migration experience outside the Isan region (Northeast) encourages both women and men to marry a spouse from a different region (rather than to marry in or to stay single). Integrating qualitative and quantitative analyses, this study further argues that marrying a non-Isan spouse is not simply due to moving out of the Isan region, but also has a lot to do with migrants' type of employment. What migrants do for a living not only provides the venue for them to meet with diverse people from other regions, but also structures ways that they live their lives.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Both substantive and methodological implications can be drawn from this study. The findings suggest that characteristics of the marriage market should be incorporated in studies of migration's impact on marriage patterns. More methodologically, this study points to the need for longitudinal data and analytic perspectives to address the effects of migration on marriage patterns.
