“…In addition, constraints imposed by the previous choice may generate an involuntary inertia effect. For example, there is sound reason to suspect that the existing tenure type of a household constrains the choice of future tenure type (Short 1978).…”

“…There have recently been a great number of papers which discuss various aspects of this movement, and several reviews about these papers (for example, QUIGLEY and WEINBURG, 1977;SHORT, 1978;BASSETT and SHORT, 1980;CLARK, 1981). The 1970's was also the period of the behavioral approach in geography: thus , many studies on residential mobility were made from this viewpoint, and the individual level was often adopted as the scale of analysis.…”

The purpose of this study is to describe the residential segregation patterns by 5-year age group and their recent changes in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and to explain the effects of migration on the segregation pattern. This study adopted the viewpoint of cohorts, and yielded the following results:First, most of the segregation patterns of 14 age grouups show a concentric tendency; the age groups 0-14 and 30-44 tend to be distributed more densely in the outer part of the metropolitan area (Outer Tokyo), and the age groups 15-29 and 45 and over tend to be distributed more densely in the inner part of the metropolitan area (Inner Tokyo). However, in the period between 1980 and 1985 the age groups 15-19 and 45-49 shifted their distributions from Inner Tokyo to Outer Tokyo, and the age group 30-34 shifted from Outer Tokyo to Inner Tokyo.Second, two main migration flows are observed: the migration of the young from outside of the metropolitan area to Inner Tokyo, and the migration of young families from Inner Tokyo to Outer Tokyo. These two migration flows have effects on creating the principal age segregation patterns.Third, with applied cohort analysis, an increase of the young who were born and brought up in the Tokyo metropolitan area, "the Native Young", was observed, as well as a decrease of the young who immigrate into the metropolitan area from the outside, "the Foreign Young".Fourth, the recent change of the segregation pattern of the 15-19 age group after 1980 is caused not only by the recent decrease of "the Foreign Young", but also by the increase of "the Native Young" who moved to Outer Tokyo with their parents in the past.Fifth, the age segregation in the Tokyo metropolitan area will be probably weakened by the matu rity of the suburbs in the next decades.

“…Despite numerous attempts to make it operational, the behavioural approach has been difficult to quantify and has proven disappointing from a predictive point of view (see, for example, Brown & Horton & >^^ttick 1970, Gustavus & Brown 1977. It has also attracted considerable criticism from the managerialist school (Pahl 1975) and from the stmcturalist perspective of political economy, both of which argue that greater account must be taken of the constraints imposed upon individual choice by the prevailing scxjial, ecx)nomic and political framework (Gray 1975;Short 1978). Despite these critiques, it is aigued that the behavioural approach has made a significant contribution to understanding of migration by challenging the normative assumption of rational economic man, emphasising the importance of motivations, preferences and the role of information, and promoting a prcx^ss-orientation in migration research (Golledge 1980).…”

“…The vast literature which has resulted extends from early work by human ecologists on concepts of residential 'invasion and succession' (Burgess 1925;McKenzie 1933;Park 1926), through the land use models of Alonso (1964) and attempts to identify spatial bias (Adams 1969, Lee 1970, to more recent behavioural (Brown & Moore 1970), managerial (Plahl 1975 and stmctural (Gray 1975, Short 1978 perspectives.…”

“…In his study of mobiUty from tiie 1971 census Rowland (1979, p. 101 Rowland (1983) ectended this schema to provide a more detailed breakdown of events in the later Ufe cycle and pointed to the onset of disabiUty as an additional fector likely to precipitete a change in residence. As discussed in chapter two, the Ufe cycle approach has been subject to considerable criticism, both for the linear sequence of events which it impUes (Stepleton 1980) and for its feUure to recognise constraints on population mobiUty (Gray 1975, Pahl 1975, Short 1978. While most migration represents a response to changing opportunities or circumstances, a significant proportion of moves at aU ages are involuntary.…”
