数字乡村建设对农村消费结构升级的影响关系研究——基于城乡收入差距的中介效应

Research on Influence of Digital Village Construction on Upgrading of Rural Consumption Structure Based on Mediating Effect of Urban and Rural Income Gap

数字乡村建设所带来的数字红利和发展机遇为释放农村消费活力、促进农村消费优化升级开辟了新路径。基于2011—2020年的省级面板数据,实证分析了数字乡村建设对农村消费结构升级的影响及作用机制。结果表明:(1)数字乡村建设对农村消费结构升级具有正向促进作用,此结论在经过稳健性检验后依旧成立;(2)数字乡村建设对农村消费结构升级具有明显的区域异质性,在东部地区影响效应最强,中部地区次之,对西部地区影响效应最低;(3)实证检验表明,城乡收入差距在数字乡村建设对农村消费结构升级的影响中具有中介作用。

The digital dividend and development opportunities brought by the construction of digital villages have opened up a new path for releasing the vitality of rural consumption and promoting the optimization and upgrading of rural consumption.Based on the provincial panel data from 2011 to 2020,the impact and mechanism of digital village construction on rural consumption structure upgrading were empirically analyzed.The results show that:(1)Digital village construction has a positive role in promoting the upgrading of rural consumption structure,and this conclusion is still true after the robustness test.(2)The construction of digital villages has obvious regional heterogeneity on the upgrading of rural consumption structure,and the impact is strongest in the eastern region,followed by the central region,and the lowest impact on the western region.(3)Empirical tests show that the urban-rural income gap plays a mediating role in the impact of digital village construction on the upgrading of rural consumption structure.
