摘要
在劳动力转移和老龄化的双重背景下,文章重点关注农村子女流动对农村空巢老人自评健康和慢性病状况的影响机制,比较经济支持和就近居住两种代际支持方式对农村空巢老人健康状况的不同影响。利用中国健康与养老追踪调查数据库2015年和2018年的数据,并采用倾向得分匹配法与双重差分法进行实证分析后发现,农村子女流向城市会显著恶化空巢老人的自评健康并增加老人的慢性病患病概率。在对子女代际支持的两种模式进行比较后发现,经济支持效应可以改善空巢老人的自评健康,但对改善慢性病患病情况的影响微乎其微,忽视效应不利于空巢老人自评健康,但可以缓解部分慢性病的患病状况。以子女流动距离为门槛探究何种流动距离对空巢老人自评健康最有利,结果表明,当流动子女与空巢老人同县/区但不同村/社区时,空巢老人自评健康状况最佳。上述研究为有针对性地制定农村空巢老人照料政策提供了参考依据。
In the dual context of labor force transfer and aging,this paper focused on the mechanisms of rural children’s migration on the self-rated health and chronic disease status of rural empty nesters. It compared the different effects of two intergenerational support modalities: financial support and proximity to residence on the health status of rural empty nesters. By uses of CHARLS data from 2015 and 2018,and the empirical analysis via propensity score matching and double difference methods,we found that rural-urban children migration significantly worsened the self-rated health and increased the prevalence of chronic diseases among the empty nesters. After comparing the two modes of children’s intergenerational support,it was found that the effect of economic support can improve the self-rated health of empty nesters,but had little impact on the improvement of the prevalence of chronic diseases. Ignoring effect was not conducive to the self-rated health of empty nesters,but can alleviate the prevalence of some chronic diseases. Finally,the distance of children’s migration was used as a threshold to investigate which mobility distance was most beneficial to the health of the empty nesters. The results showed that the best self-rated health status of the empty nesters was achieved when their migrant children were in the same county/district but in different villages/communities. The above study provides a reference for the development of targeted policies for the care of rural empty nesters.
