【摘要】：本文基于中国家庭追踪调查数据(CFPS),首次从居民角度检验了互联网使用对幸福感的影响及机制,并且验证了互联网使用效果的个体差异性。在收入一定的前提下,互联网对居民幸福感的影响主要是总体效果和间接效果:直接对居民的幸福感产生整体性影响,间接降低居民对于物质收入的主观看重程度。结果表明互联网的使用可以促进居民幸福的概率提升2.1个百分点,但降低了收入对于幸福感的正向作用。我们同时利用条件混合过程估计方法和工具变量克服了内生性问题,所得结论依然稳健。进一步的研究验证了居民个体差异性对于互联网作用的影响,发现互联网使用对幸福感的显著效果主要存在于中等收入阶层、中等教育阶层、较少社会网络群体以及大中城市居民中。
[Abstract]:Based on the Chinese Family tracking Survey (CFPS), this paper for the first time examines the effects and mechanisms of Internet use on well-being from the perspective of residents, and verifies the individual differences in the effects of Internet use. On the premise of a certain income, the impact of Internet on residents' well-being is mainly the overall effect and indirect effect: directly affects the well-being of residents as a whole, indirectly reduces the subjective importance of material income of residents. The results showed that the use of Internet could increase the probability of happiness by 2.1 percentage points, but lower the positive effect of income on happiness. At the same time, we use conditional mixed process estimation method and tool variables to overcome the endogenetic problem, and the results are still robust. Further studies have verified the impact of individual differences on the role of the Internet, and found that the significant effect of Internet use on happiness mainly exists in the middle income class, secondary education class, Fewer social network groups and large and medium-sized urban residents.
