Constant 1.206 1 .07<br />

As indicated above, <strong>the</strong> p-value for <strong>the</strong> coefficient is largely greater than 0.1. This<br />

suggests that <strong>the</strong> number of desired changes in hospitals does not affect <strong>the</strong> respondent’s<br />

intention to migrate. So, even if <strong>the</strong> respondent suggests many changes to be applied in<br />

hospitals, he might not be willing to migrate to ano<strong>the</strong>r country, <strong>the</strong> current situation of<br />

hospitals does not push medical doctors to migrate. Actually, while filling <strong>the</strong><br />

questionnaires many medical doctors stated that though <strong>the</strong> hard circumstances in <strong>the</strong><br />

Moroccan health sector, <strong>the</strong>y don’t think about migration to ano<strong>the</strong>r country.<br />

8. Migration conditions disturbing medical doctors and intention to migrate<br />

In <strong>the</strong> previous sections, <strong>the</strong> study investigated <strong>the</strong> reasons encouraging medical<br />

professionals to migrate. However, one question in <strong>the</strong> survey asked respondents about<br />

<strong>the</strong> migration conditions that might disturb <strong>the</strong>m or even make <strong>the</strong>m decide to not<br />

migrate. The questionnaire records (as shown in figure 11 in <strong>the</strong> appendix) indicate that<br />

<strong>the</strong> main migration conditions bo<strong>the</strong>ring respondents and that might limit respondents’<br />

intention to migrate are equivalence test (56% of respondents), readmission into <strong>the</strong> host<br />

country (44%), partner and child terms (43%), and salaries (17%). It is expected that<br />

<strong>the</strong>se factors have a negative effect on respondents’ intention to migrate. So, <strong>the</strong> higher<br />

<strong>the</strong> number of migration conditions disturbing medical professionals, <strong>the</strong> lower will be<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir intention to migrate. In order to test whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>se factors are related to respondents’<br />

intention to migrate, a logit regression is performed with <strong>the</strong> number of conditions<br />

mentioned by respondents as an independent variable and intention to migrate as a<br />

dependent variable.<br />
