Urbanization is the end to the problem of new generation migrant workers,but most new generation migrant workers now have difficulties to transform themselves into townspeople,which goes against the advance of our country's urbanization process,and sustainable and healthy development of our economy.Selecting Shenyang and Yuyao as research areas,this article carries on case studies and obtains the survey data of new generation migrant workers in the two areas.Using the survey data and demand-identification biprobit model,the article measures the urbanization inhibition degree of new generation migrant workers and then predicts that of the individual new generation migrant workers.Based on the quantile regression decomposition of the urbanization inhibition degree index of the individual new generation migrant workers,the article analyzes the influence of human capital and social capital on the urbanization inhibition degree of new generation migrant workers in order to promote their integration into city life.The research discovers that the key factor influencing the new generation migrant workers' urbanization is their social capital,and only when the urbanization inhibition degree is higher than 80% will the enhancement of human capital level cause it to drop.Therefore,corresponding policy suggestions are givens as follows:the government should improve the city public services fruition level for new generation migrant workers;develop and perfect migrant workers' union;strengthen the training of professional skill for new generation migrant workers,particularly in the areas where the urbanization inhibition degree is relatively high.
