Hypothesis
There will be a higher rate of transition from uxorilocality to virilocality than the inverse transition.
Note
The results support that the change from uxorilocality to neolocality (qUV) is greater than the reverse transition (qVU). In Indo-European societies qUV has a value of 32, while qVU has a value of 1. For Austronesian societies, qUV is 1.4 while qVU is 1.
