Methodological design:  Linear regressions with fixed effects using the Facebook Social Connectedness Index (SCI) as a measure of social connectedness among two regions and consular registration records are a proxy to measure migration.  Results:  Social connectedness has a positive effect on the migratory flow between Mexican and U.S. states  Research limitations:  Descriptive analysis is not enough to establish causality among the variables of interest. However, strong correlations are still informative.  Findings:  One standard deviation on our measure of connectedness is positively associated with approximately 5 percent more authorized consular cards.]]></p></abstract>

Diseño metodológico:  Regresiones lineales con efectos fijos utilizando el Facebook Social Connectedness Index (SCI) como medida de conectividad social entre dos regiones y los registros de matrícula consular como proxy para medir la migración.  Resultados:  La conectividad social tiene un efecto positivo en el flujo migratorio entre estados mexicanos y estadounidenses  Limitaciones de la investigación:  El análisis descriptivo no es suficiente para establecer causalidad entre las variables de interés. Sin embargo, las correlaciones fuertes siguen siendo informativas.  Resultados:  Una desviación estándar en nuestra medida de conectividad se asocia positivamente con aproximadamente un 5 por ciento más de tarjetas consulares autorizadas.]]></p></abstract>
