艺术参与对个体主观幸福感的影响研究——基于中国综合社会调查(CGSS 2015)的经验证据

A Study on the Effect of Artistic Participation on Individual Subjective Well-Being:An Empirical Study Based on CGSS(2015)

艺术是影响个体幸福生活的重要因素。本文利用中国家庭综合调查数据,采取倾向得分匹配法,评估参与艺术活动与否对个体主观幸福感的影响。研究结果表明:个体参与艺术活动的主观幸福感将比不参与艺术活动显著提高,艺术会带来幸福。但在具体领域满意度上的影响存在差异,反映了相关艺术服务供给的不足。进一步的机制分析发现,审美、认知、娱乐和交际的艺术能动性是其带来幸福的内在机制,艺术参与改善了个体的闲暇体验和社会资本。其中,学习能力、社交能力和认知能力的中介效应显著为正,而劳动生产率的中介效应具有不确定性,因为艺术参与既会提高个体的劳动生产率,也有可能因过度参与而产生艺术疲劳,进而发生艺术对劳动的挤出效应,降低人的主观幸福感。

Art is an important factor in building the well-being of an individual's life.In this paper,we evaluate the influence of participation in art activities on individual subjective well-being,using the CGSS data by the Propensity Score Matching method.The results indicate that individuals'subjective well-being will be significantly higher when they participate in the arts activities than when they do not,which means the arts will bring a sense of well-being.However,there were differences in the impact on domain satisfaction,reflecting the inadequacy of the supply of relevant arts services.Further mechanism analysis shows that artistic activities(aesthetic,cognitive,entertainment and social intercourse)are the intrinsic mechanism of art bringing happiness.Moreover,artistic participation improves individual leisure experiences and social capital.In fact,the mediating effects of learning,social and cognitive abilities are significantly positive,while the mediating effects of labour productivity are uncertain since artistic participation will increase individual labour productivity and lead to artistic fatigue due to over-involvement.This in turn has an artistic extrusion effect on labour and reduces the subjective well-being of the individual.
