🗑
show interaction is inversely proportional to distance  
🗑
show related to age, sex, education, type and place of employment, and income

🗑
The interaction potential model   show
🗑
Among the reasons for migrating, push factors   show
🗑
show specific hazards do not occur with great frequency  
🗑
The migration field for any locale is   show

show short-distance contacts are more likely than long-distance contacts.  
🗑
show directional biases

show territoriality.  
🗑
show greater than theoretically expected flows between two places  
🗑
show migration field  
🗑
show False  
🗑
Spatial interaction is a concept applicable only to commodity movements   show
🗑
In general, the space–time prism of females is more flexible than that of males   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show False  
🗑
Intervening opportunities serve to multiply the exchange flows between two distant points.   show
🗑
show False  
🗑
Mass communication is essentially a one-way information flow   show
🗑
An individual's zone of daily movement is known as that person's   show
🗑
In modern American interregional moves, the decision to migrate appears to be controlled by   show
🗑
In pure spatial theory, interaction decisions are based solely on distance and distance-cost considerations   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show True  
🗑
show False  
🗑
show False  
🗑
show True  
🗑
show False  
🗑
People with limited awareness space are said to be confined within a space-time prism.   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
When mobility is restricted and time is limited, critical distances contract.   show
🗑
Space-time convergence occurs when multiple shopping opportunities aggregate in regional malls.   show
🗑
The law of retail gravitation states that the breaking point between two cities of unequal size will lie farther from the larger of the two cities.   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show True  
🗑
When a commodity is acquired from an intervening opportunity rather than from a more distant supplier, its transferability is improved.   show
🗑
Distance decay and critical distance are different terms defining the same concept.   show
🗑
Factors that stimulate migration are?   show
🗑
show their perceptions of particular destinations; distance affects accuracy of perception.  
🗑
Voluntary migrants are stimulated by?   show
🗑
Forced migrations result from?   show
🗑
show the long-term relocation of an individual, household, or group to a new location outside the community of origin
