The Influence of Socioeconomic Status on the Happiness of the Elderly based on the Social Support in China

本文使用中国9个省、2 200名55岁以上老年人的微观调查数据,主要检验了基于社会支持的调节作用下,社会经济地位对老年人主观幸福感的影响。实证分析结果表明:在社会经济地位的三个指标中,老年人的主观幸福感与收入呈正相关,收入越高幸福感越高;但是幸福感与受教育程度和职业两个指标的相关性并不显著。老年人的主观幸福感与社会支持显著相关,社会支持程度越高,老年人的主观幸福感越强。

Based on the micro - survey data of 2 200 the elderly with age over 55 from nine provinces in China, this paper examines the impact of socioeconomic status and social support on the subjective well - being（SWB）. The empirical analysis results show that： in the three indicators of socioeconomic status, the income has positive relationship with the happiness of the elderly, the higher the income, the higher the happiness, but not the education and the occupation. The social support has positive relationship with the happiness of the elderly, the higher the degree of social support, the higher the subjective well - be- ing of the elderly.
