本文使用中国家庭动态追踪调查基线数据，结合工具变量探究教育对劳动力迁移的影响。研究发现，受教育年限每增加一年，劳动力发生迁移的可能性上升1.7%；具体来说，教育对省际间迁移和由农村向城市的迁移影响较为显著。此外，教育对女性由农村向城市迁移的影响大于男性。影响机制分析表明，教育有利于提升个体的信息获取能力，从而使得劳动力倾向流动、迁移。

In this paper I examine the causal impact of education attainment on internal labor migration in China by using the exposure to the compulsory education reform from around 1986 in China as instrument for completed years of schooling. Based on the baseline data of China Family Panel Studies, I find that one more year of schooling significantly increases the likelihood of residing in a different province later in life by 1.7 percentage points. Gender heterogeneity effects of education are detected. The results further indicate that education leads to an increase in the ability of collecting information, which can be interpreted as a potential mechanism behind the findings.
