Abstract

Normative housing deficits are introduced into an analysis of the propensity to move as intervening variables between socioeconomic and demographic characteristics and satisfaction. The findings support the use of residential satisfaction and normative housing deficits as predictors of the propensity to move. The results indicate that the propensity to move is a response to housing satisfaction which, in turn, is a response to discrepancies between achieved and normatively prescribed housing.
