The authors compile large data sets from Norwegian and US historical censuses to study return migration during the Age of Mass Migration (1850-1913). Norwegian immigrants who returned to Norway held lower-paid occupations than did Norwegian immigrants who stayed in the United States, both before and after their first transatlantic migration, suggesting they were negatively selected from the migrant pool. Upon returning to Norway, return migrants held higher-paid occupations relative to Norwegians who never moved, despite hailing from poorer backgrounds. These patterns suggest that despite being negatively selected, return migrants had been able to accumulate savings and could improve their economic circumstances once they returned home.
作者从挪威和美国的历史人口普查中汇编了大量数据集，以研究大规模移民时代（1850 - 1913年）的返乡移民情况。返回挪威的挪威移民在首次跨大西洋移民之前和之后，从事的职业报酬都低于留在美国的挪威移民，这表明他们是从移民群体中被负面筛选出来的。回到挪威后，尽管返乡移民出身较贫困，但相对于从未迁移过的挪威人，他们从事的职业报酬更高。这些模式表明，尽管是被负面筛选出来的，但返乡移民能够积累储蓄，一旦回国就能改善他们的经济状况。
