城市定居对农民工幸福感的影响及其代际差异

The Influence of Urban Settlement on Migrant Workers' Happiness and Its Intergenerational Difference

利用2013年中国七大城市调查数据,采用Ordered Probit模型和工具变量法(IV Probit),将农民工幸福感分为幸福程度、生活满意程度与未来信心程度三个维度,实证分析了城市定居对农民工幸福感的影响及其代际差异。研究发现:城市定居对农民工幸福感的影响具有代际差异。对第一代农民工而言,城市定居对其幸福感没有显著影响。对新生代农民工而言,城市定居不但提高了其幸福程度,而且对未来信心程度与生活满意程度也起到了积极作用。解释机制显示,在举家迁移、城市排斥与自我发展等方面的差异,造成了城市定居对两代农民工幸福感的影响不同。文章最后结合研究得出的结论,提出了相应的政策建议。
