ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the relationship
between factors career path and political stability on the decision making
whether to live in Indonesia or to live abroad as their future plans; if they
do, what the odds ratio is in each factor to their decisions. This study uses
descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression model as the analysis
tools for achieving this study’s objectives on fifty respondents. The result
shows that most of the respondents are Indonesian male students, while pursuing
undergraduate degree abroad with their intention mostly to return home as their
future plans. The correlation between career path and political stability is
low and negative. The model is not fit, but still at an acceptable level since
the significance level is high; it shows that career path will increase the
odds ratio people to move abroad or stay abroad almost 3 times likely, while political
stability will increase the odds of people to stay abroad by 50%.
