经济独立对女性婚后生活幸福感的影响研究

The Influence of Economic Independence on Women's Marital Happiness

本文利用CGSS2015年数据,从经济是否独立以及经济独立程度两个视角,采用Ordered Probit模型探究经济独立对女性婚后生活幸福感的影响,并进一步考察了经济独立影响女性婚后生活幸福感的可能路径。本研究得出的主要结论有:(1)经济独立能够显著提升女性婚后生活幸福感,而且这种提升效应在城市女性中更明显。(2)随着经济独立程度提高,女性婚后生活幸福感经历了一个"先上升再递减"的"倒U型"趋势;平均而言,当经济独立程度为0.36时,女性的婚后生活幸福感最高。(3)经济独立会通过影响女性生活质量、家庭话语权以及夫妻双方感情等因素进而显著影响女性婚后生活幸福感。
