代际关系与农村老年人主观福利--基于潜在类别模型的分析

Intergenerational Relationship and Subjective Welfare of Rural Elderly:The Study Based on Potential Category Model

本文基于代际团结理论,利用中国老年社会追踪调查(CLASS)数据,通过潜在类别模型分析农村老年人代际关系模式,并基于Ologit模型实证分析不同家庭代际关系模式对农村老年人主观福利的差异化影响。研究表明:我国农村老年人家庭代际关系模式可划分为疏离型、亲密有间型、紧密型,与疏离型相比,亲密有间型能够促进农村老年人主观福利提升,但紧密型的提升效果更强。亲密有间型与紧密型共同特点是成年子女为老年父母提供了充足的经济与情感支持,而居住模式是区分亲密有间型与紧密型的重要因素。因此,对于农村家庭来说,有必要鼓励成年子女与老年父母就近居住或共同生活。

Based on the theory of intergenerational solidarity,using the data of China Elderly Social tracking survey(class),this paper analyzes the intergenerational relationship model of rural elderly through potential category model,and empirically analyzes the differential impact of different family intergenerational relationship models on the subjective welfare of rural elderly based on Ologit model.The research shows that the family intergenerational relationship model of rural elderly in China can be divided into alienation type,intimacy and closeness type.Compared with alienation type,intimacy and closeness type can promote the subjective welfare of rural elderly,but the effect of closeness type is stronger.The common feature of intimacy type and closeness type is that adult children provide sufficient economic and emotional support for elderly parents,and living mode is an important factor to distinguish intimacy type and closeness type.Therefore,for rural families,it is necessary to encourage adult children to live nearby or live together with their elderly parents.
