摘要
文章使用人口普查数据,采用人口死亡分析技术,聚焦性别失衡背景下中国大龄未婚男性的死亡状况,为解决该群体的基本生存和保障问题提供依据。研究表明,中国大龄未婚男性的死亡状况与曾婚男性存在明显差异,面临较高的死亡风险和较严重的寿命不均等,其2010年30岁的平均预期寿命比曾婚男性低7.6年。分城乡看,农村大龄未婚男性受城乡差距和失婚状态的叠加影响,是"弱势中的弱势群体";分教育看,不同受教育程度的大龄未婚男性的死亡状况存在明显差异,教育素质的改善可弥补其因失婚带来的健康劣势。与婚姻和户籍转变相比,教育素质的提升对未婚男性寿命的增益作用最大。
Using censuses data,this paper focuses on the mortality level and pattern of China’s unmarried male adults in the context of population sex imbalance.Our research findings show that there is a significant difference in mortality between married and unmarried male adults.Compared with married males,the unmarried ones have higher death risks and larger disparities in their expected life time.The life expectancy at age 30 is 7.6-year lower for the unmarried men as compared with the married.The rural unmarried male adults constitute“the most vulnerable group”due to the soci-economic disparities between rural and urban areas and unmarried status.Among the unmarried male adults,mortality differs significantly by education level,and the educational difference is severer than that examplified by marital status or residence type.The study concludes that while it is less feasible to reverse the sex imbalance in the short term,developing education may be more effective to mitigate the excess mortality of China’s unmarried male adults.
