多重社会网络与城镇居民的主观幸福感——基于JSNET2014-2016追踪数据的实证研究

Multiple Social Networks and Subjective Well-being in Urban China:Findings from JSNET Panel Data(2014-2016)

根据属性特征与亲疏程度,可将社会网络划分为不同类别,并且社会网络对主观幸福感的影响存在异质性。研究基于两期"社会网络与职业经历调查"追踪数据(JSNET2014-2016),运用个体固定效应模型,分析了社会网络对中国城镇居民主观幸福感的影响。研究发现:(1)个体的社会网络对主观幸福感存在正向影响,但这一效应主要通过非正式社会网络产生,正式网络的效果并不明显;(2)非正式网络对主观幸福感的影响主要存在于个体的亲缘型社会网络,非亲缘型社会网络的效果并不明显;(3)亲缘型社会网络对幸福感的影响,存在性别、居住地等身份特征的差异,相较而言,对女性、非本地居民的作用效果更为突出。总体而言,我们从文化观念的视角对以上结果做出理解。

Social networks can be classified into different categories according to their attributes and intimacy, which have heterogeneous impacts on subjective well-being. Applying fixed effect modeling on panel data of"Job Search and Social Network"(JSNET 2014-2016), the present study explores the social network effects on well-being. The results show that:(1)individual social networks have a positive impact on SWB, however, the main effect emerges from informal social networks while formal networks have no significant effect;(2)the influence of informal networks mainly exist in intimate social networks, while nonintimate social networks are not significant;(3)the effect of intimate social networks on SWB is significantly different across social groups. Compared with males and local residents, intimate social networks have a higher effect on the SWB of females and migrants, respectively. Overall, the findings and differences are deeply rooted in the Chinese cultural context.
