摘要
本文利用2019年中国社会状况综合调查(CSS2019)数据,对7031个农村居民样本的幸福感水平进行多维刻画,运用OLS方法和中介效应模型,实证检验互联网使用对农村居民幸福感的影响及其作用机制。结果表明,互联网使用显著提升了农村居民幸福感水平。相较于未使用互联网的农村居民,使用互联网的农村居民幸福感水平高0.138个单位。利用工具变量法再检验后,结论仍然稳健。机制检验表明,互联网使用通过阶层认同提升农村居民幸福感。进一步分析发现,使用互联网浏览信息、娱乐休闲和开展商务活动的频率对农村居民幸福感具有显著正向影响,其中,线上商务活动频率对农村居民幸福感影响最大。在不区分上网活动目的时,互联网使用对农村居民幸福感的提升效应在男性和具有较高人力资本的群体中表现更为明显。区分上网活动用途后发现,女性群体使用互联网浏览信息的频率越高,其幸福感的提升越明显;具有较低人力资本的群体线上娱乐休闲的频率越高,其幸福感的提升越明显。
This article uses 2019 Chinese Social Survey(CSS2019) data to describe the well-being level of 7031 rural residents in multiple dimensions and employs the OLS method and mediation effect model to empirically test the impact of Internet use on rural residents’ well-being and its mechanism. The results show that Internet use significantly improves the level of rural residents’ wellbeing. Compared with rural residents who do not use the Internet, the well-being level of the rural residents who use the Internet is 0.138 units higher. The conclusion remains robust after the results are retested with the instrumental variable method. The mechanism test shows that Internet use improves rural residents’ well-being through class identity. Further analysis shows that the frequency of Internet use for information browsing, entertainment and leisure, and business activities has a significant positive impact on rural residents’ well-being. Among them, the frequency of online business activities has the greatest impact on rural residents’ well-being.Without distinguishing the purpose of online activities, the effect of Internet use on rural residents’ well-being is more pronounced among men and groups with higher human capital. After distinguishing the purpose of online activities, it finds that the higher the frequency of women using the internet to browse information, the more obvious the improvement of their well-being. And the higher the frequency of online entertainment and leisure in the groups with lower human capital, the more obvious the improvement of their well-being.
