扩大抑或缩小:互联网使用对户籍工资差距的影响——基于CGSS数据的经验证据

Expanding or Narrowing:The Impact of Internet Use on Household Wage Gap--Empirical Evidence Based on CGSS Data

基于CGSS数据,本文检验互联网对不同户籍就业者工资收入的影响作用及其异质性,并利用RIF回归分解法探讨互联网对户籍工资差距的影响。研究结果表明,互联网对不同户籍就业者的工资收入均具有显著的正向影响,且对城镇职工的影响大于农民工,从而进一步扩大户籍工资差距;网络信息渠道对城镇职工的影响更明显,互联网的工资溢价效应在“新生代”和高学历就业者中更显著;互联网对户籍工资差距的扩大效应不会一直存在,随着农民工网络技能及社会经济地位的提升而逐渐缩小。为此,本文建议强化网络基础建设和扩大职业培训,提高农民工互联网使用比例和使用技能,从而缩小“数字鸿沟”和户籍工资差距。

Based on the data of CGSS,this paper examines the effect and heterogeneity of the Internet on the wage of employees with different household registration,and uses RIF regression decomposition method to analyze the impact of the Internet on the household wage gap.The results show that Internet use has a significant positive impact on the wage of different household registration employees,and this effect on urban workers is greater than that on migrant workers,which can further widen the household registration wage gap.The information acquisition function of the Internet has a more obvious impact on urban workers,and the wage premium effect of the Internet is more significant among the new generation and highly educated employees.The expansion effect of the Internet on the household wage gap will not always exist,but will gradually narrow with the improvement of migrant workers'network skills and social and economic status.This paper suggests that we should strengthen the network infrastructure and expand vocational training to improve the migrant workers'Internet use proportion and skills,so as to narrow the“digital gap”and the household wage gap.
