民生幸福感如何影响中国公民的政治支持?——基于第七波世界价值观调查数据的实证研究

How does the Happiness of People’s Livelihood Affect the Political Support of Chinese Citizens:Empirical Research based on the Data of the 7^(th) World Value Survey

关注民生问题、提升民生幸福感是我国社会主义民主政治建设的重要内涵,彰显了中国特色社会主义制度的优越性。本研究利用第七波世界观调查数据,探讨了民生幸福感对我国公民政治支持的影响。研究结果显示,公民对政治支持的态度取决于个人福祉,而民生幸福感的增强则依赖于经济水平的增长,且个人收入分配偏好在家庭经济满意度通过民生幸福感影响政治支持的条件过程模型中的调节作用显著。这一发现验证了将民生与政治紧密联系起来的幸福契约论——由经济感知所带来的民生幸福感会显著影响中国公民的政治支持,幸福感较低的人往往会通过违反规则来惩罚政府当局。此外,虽然当前的数据结果尚不支持"伊斯特林悖论",但从历史发展角度来说,还需要接受时间序列数据的进一步验证。

Paying attention to people’s livelihood and improving people’s well-being are important connotations of China’s socialist democratic political construction,which shows the superiority of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics.In this study,the influence of people’s well-being on Chinese citizens’political support is discussed by using the data of the the 7th World Value Survey Wave.The results show that citizens’attitude towards political support depends on personal well-being,while the enhancement of people’s well-being depends on the growth of economic level,and personal income distribution preference has a significant moderating effect in conditional process model.This discovery verifies the happiness contract theory,which closely links people’s livelihood with politics.The happiness of people’s livelihood brought by economic perception will significantly affect the political support of Chinese citizens,and people with low happiness will often punish the government authorities by violating the rules.In addition,although the current data results do not support“Easterlin Paradox”,from the perspective of historical development,it needs to be further verified by time series data.
