(1) is Post graduate training (2) Pay structure (3) Demand of doctors in developed world (4) Quality of life (5) lack of career opportunities (6) poor law and order situation . Data has been collected from a specific city . has around 400 respondents. Please advise is requested on which model to use. We are working on how these factors lead to brain drain
Well, actually, statistical application depends on the objective and hypotheses of your research. Generally, can use correlation and regression with the help of SPSS.
Are the 400 doctors all working separately, or do some work in the same practice or location? This will affect the type of analyses.
You need to have a focus. What is your research question? What are your hypotheses? What are you trying to answer? Then look at the data you have. Also, read the literature and papers on the topic. These actions will give you insight and how to manage them.
Dear Khurram Ali Mubasher , as per my limited knowledge, the most important issue in your case is the operationalization of your variables (i.e., Brain Drain as well as Post graduate training, Pay structure, Demand of doctors in developed world, Quality of life, lack of career opportunities, and poor law and order situation). As Prof David L Morgan and Viswa Chandu mentioned, did you measure all these variables with Reliable and Validated instruments or with self-defined Item(s)?
However, if there are no theoretical and/or measurement issues, you can use Correlation as well as Multiple Regression (Hierarchical Regression would be even better to understand incremental validity of IVs). Regards
You need:
1. Defined the variable
3. Pick up the issues and select the dimensions and do alpha crombach
4. Statics analysis

Based on your Explanation your data has (1) is Postgraduate training (2) Pay structure (3) Demand of doctors in the developed world (4) Quality of life (5) lack of career opportunities (6) poor law and order situation as an independent variable and brain drain as a dependent variable. if you mention what scale you have used then we can suggest the better statistical technique Khurram Ali Mubasher
You need to more clearly specify your study outcomes, independent variables and potential confounding variables
