Abstract

Security is one of the basic human needs, when people see the future as uncertain in terms of economic, social and personal life, they have doubts about security. This lack of feeling of security can be a stimulus for the movement of people. In this regard, the present study investigated this issue by selecting a sample of 376 young people from Abdanan city in Ilam province. The results show that in almost all aspects of the sense of security the young people studied have scored lower than the expected average. On the other hand, the average score of the tendency to migrate among young respondents is higher than the expected average. The results of multivariate analysis using linear regression show that by controlling background variables, all aspects of the sense of security have an impact on the tendency of young people to migrate, and the more insecure young people feel in different dimensions their tendency to migrate increases. However, it is worth considering that among the different dimensions of the sense of security, the sense of judicial security had the greatest impact on the desire of young people to migrate. Therefore, the sense of security related to migration should not be reduced to its economic dimension, but each of its dimensions can in turn affect the desire of young people to migrate.
