return elderly migration

This repository contains the R code and related files for a study on return migration intentions among older Syrian refugees in Turkey. The dataset includes socio-demographic and discrimination variables collected from individuals aged 60 and above. Key variables include legal status (temporary protection vs. citizenship), self-reported health, employment status, perceived discrimination (measured by a daily discrimination scale), and other control variables such as gender, marital status, language proficiency, and access to social services.The primary objective is to investigate factors influencing the likelihood of return migration. Logistic regression models were estimated using R (<code>glm()</code> with binomial family), and model performance was assessed through ROC curves, AUC, accuracy, and other classification metrics. Special consideration was given to class imbalance in the dependent variable (return intention: Yes/No), and weighted models were also explored.The repository includes:Raw dataset (<code>.sav</code> file)R scripts for analysisOutput plots (ROC, OR plots)Regression summaries and model diagnosticsFigures and tables suitable for academic publicationThis analysis contributes to the literature on forced migration, aging, and integration by highlighting how socio-demographic variables and daily discrimination interact in shaping return decisions among an understudied population.
