数字乡村参与促进了农村居民创业选择吗?——基于内生转换Probit模型的实证分析

Does Rural Digitalization Engagement Foster Entrepreneurial Decision-Making Among Rural Residents?An Empirical Analysis Based on the Endogenous Switching Probit Model

创业是解决农村居民就业、实现共同富裕的有力举措。文章基于数字乡村参与微观视角,运用SOR模型构建“情境刺激—内部动机—行为反应”过程机制,理论分析数字乡村参与与农村居民创业选择的关系,并进一步通过CFPS微观调查数据、内生转换Probit模型,实证检验经济、治理、生活三种不同应用场景下数字乡村参与对农村居民创业选择的影响。研究发现,农村居民数字乡村及各维度参与均显著促进农村居民创业选择。异质性分析表明,数字乡村参与对高教育、高收入水平的农村群体的创业效应更大,且在粮食主产区和东部、中部地区更为突出。因此,要积极鼓励农村居民参与数字乡村实践,同时也要重视数字乡村各领域发展的包容性和公平性。

Entrepreneurship is a powerful measure to address employment for rural residents and achieve shared prosperity.This paper,based on a micro-perspective of rural digitalization engagement,employs the SOR model to construct a“stimulus-situation—internal motivation—behavioral response”process mechanism.It theoretically analyzes the relationship between rural digitalization engagement and the entrepreneurial decision-making of rural residents.Furthermore,using micro-survey data from CFPS and an endogenous switching Probit model,it empirically examines the impact of rural digitalization engagement on the entrepreneurial decision-making of rural residents across three different application scenarios:economic,governance,and lifestyle.Research findings:The engagement of rural residents in digitalization and its various dimensions significantly enhances their entrepreneurial decision-making.Heterogeneity analysis indicates that the impact of rural digitalization engagement on entrepreneurship is more significant among rural groups with higher education and income levels.This effect is particularly pronounced in major grain-producing areas and the eastern and central regions.Therefore,it′s crucial to actively encourage rural residents to engage in rural digitalization practices while also ensuring inclusivity and fairness across all areas of rural digitalization.
