中国基层选举中投票行为差异研究——基于中国综合社会调查2013的数据

Study on differences of voting behavior in grass-roots elections in China:based on data of Chinese General Social Survey 2013

村委会、居委会选举是基层民主的重要内容,而投票行为则是选举中最易测量的重要环节。选取2013年中国综合社会调查数据筛选出的10 904个样本进行分析,探讨不同个人背景变量的样本在基层选举中的投票行为是否存在显著差异,以期为中国基层民主建设提供决策依据。结论认为:不同宗教信仰被试者投票行为得分没有显著性差异;有党性身份被试者投票行为得分相对较高,如工会会员、中共党员等;年龄与投票行为得分呈正相关,健康状况和学历与投票行为得分呈负相关。

The elections of village committee and neighborhood committee are an important part of the grass-root democracy, and the voting behavior is the one which can be evaluated most easily during the elections. 10 904 samples are selected and analyzed from the data of Chinese General Social Survey 2013. Whether significant differences exist or not in the voting behaviors of grass-roots elections among samples of different personal background variables is discussed, in order to provide reference for the construction of grass-roots democracy in China. The conclusions are as follows： there is no significant difference in the score of voting behaviors between samples with different religious beliefs; samples who have party identity enjoy higher voting behavior scores, such as union members, CPC members etc., the voting behavior is positively correlated with age, while negatively correlated with health status and education degree.
