流动类型与农民工消费差异分析

Analysis on Migration Type and Consumption Gap for Migrant Workers

本文通过建立农民工消费函数、采用多应变量回归估计方法,就农民工流动类型对其消费的定量影响进行探讨。研究表明,首先,农民工消费以维持型支出为主,发展、享乐型支出比例较低;其次,不同流动类型农民工家庭的消费支出存在显著差异:携带孩子的农民工家庭,其人均文教娱乐消费比例显著高于单身或携带配偶的类型;最后,家庭型流动在消费上具有经济性,有利于农民工消费结构升级。

Based on consumption function, this paper makes an analysis about the quantitative effects of migration types on consumption by multivariate regression method. It concludes that, firstly, the consumptions of migrant workers focus on the maintenance expenditure and the proportion of expenditure on human capital development and entertainment is low. Secondly, expenditure among different migration types is significantly different. For migrant workers with children, the consumption ratio of education and entertainment per capita was significantly higher than that of single migrant worker or those with spouse. Thirdly, the expenditure of migrant family is more economic than single one and it could improve consumption structure.
