A Study on the Psychological Dimension of the Rural-urban Migrant Workers' City Embeddedness

Based on the theory and approach of "job embeddedness", this study constructs a psychometric tool of the rural-urban migrant workers' urbanization with five psychological dimensions. The results show that the psychological dimension of the rural-urban migrant workers' city embeddedness is composed of five factors, including sense of pressure, sense of welfare, sense of linkage, sense of support and sense of gap. The reliability and validity of the questionnaire are tested and both of them are acceptable. The status quo of the Chinese rural-urban migrant workers' urbanization is described by employing this tool for measurement.
