基于分位数回归的我国居民边际消费倾向动态研究

Dynamic study on the marginal propensity to save of Chinese residents based on quantile regression

以我国1978-2009年间城乡居民人均收入和人均储蓄数据为样本,运用分位数回归方法对各收入水平下的边际储蓄倾向进行估计。实证结果表明,边际储蓄倾向递增规律在我国城乡居民储蓄行为中也是适用的。

Based on the average income and saving of Chinese urban and rural residents between 1978 -2009, this paper estimates the marginal propensity to save under different income levels using quantile regression. The empirical result shows that the law of increasing marginal propensity to save is appropriate in the saving behavior of Chinese urban and rural residents.
