精准扶贫——教育如何影响了个体贫困

Targeted poverty alleviation——how education affects individual poverty

基于2016年和2010年CFPS微观调查数据,实证分析了精准扶贫背景下教育对个体贫困的影响及其机制问题。研究发现:提高教育水平会直接降低居民的贫困发生率;居民贫困发生率受教育水平的影响存在显著的异质性,农村居民和中西部地区居民贫困发生率受其影响更为显著;此外,教育不仅直接降低了居民贫困发生率,还通过收入机制和健康机制间接降低了居民贫困发生率,且收入机制的贡献度大于健康机制。本文结论在一定程度上为政府实施教育精准扶贫提供了理论依据。

Based on the microscopic survey data of CFPS in 2016 and 2010,the paper analyzes the impact of education on individual poverty and its mechanism under the background of Targeted poverty alleviation.The study finds that improving the education level will directly reduce the incidence of poverty among residents;the incidence of poverty among residents is significantly heterogeneous due to the level of education,and the rural residents and the central and western regions is more significantly affected;Education not only directly reduces the incidence of poverty among residents,but also indirectly reduces the incidence of poverty among residents through income mechanism and health mechanism.What’s more,the contribution of income mechanism is greater than that of health mechanism The conclusion of this paper provides a theoretical basis for the government to implement education to ensure poverty alleviation to a certain extent.
