摘要：Background:According to the Statistical Office of the Slovak Republic the educational status of Slovak emigrants is most frequently at the level of secondary school,followed by those with university education.It is estimated that about a third of university graduates leave Slovakia every year.Many findings show that people with a high quality education have a tendency to leave their country to go to different European countries or countries outside Europe for reasons of work or a higher quality of life.This is the reason why countries which are experiencing problems with the brain drain phenomenon are very interested in its exploration.The relationship between economic motives and plans to leave the country of origin has been relatively well examined.However,the relationship between motives and plans to leave abroad and socio-psychosocial and health-related factors has not been sufficiently explored.The factors which affect this decision-making process and intention formation can be different and vary extensively.Relevant factors include social relationships and other social variables which influence migration intentions and behaviour.It has been shown that there are certain personal dispositions which seem to predispose a person to manifest a higher desire to leave or show more effort to leave.The findings showed that migrating persons differ from non-migrants in characteristics which include personality factors,personal attitudes as well as health-related behaviour and risk behaviour.Regarding risk behaviour among migrating people,there was a significantly higher level of regular smokers and a higher level of alcohol use than among nonmigrating people.
