摘要
随着人口老龄化进程的加快,关注老年人精神层面的幸福感具有重要意义。采用中国健康与养老追踪调查(CHARLS)数据,系统探究互联网使用对老年群体幸福感的提升作用及其机制。实证结果表明,互联网使用会显著提升老年人的幸福感。以“是否安装宽带”为工具变量,运用2SLS回归模型来消除样本的选择性偏误问题,结论依然支持互联网使用对老年群体幸福感的正向效应。中介效应分析显示:个体社会资本和集体社会资本在互联网使用与老年人幸福感之间存在中介效应。
With the acceleration of population aging,it becomes crucial to focus on the spiritual well-being of the elderly.Utilizing data from the China Health and Aging Tracking Survey(CHARLS),this study systematically investigates the role of Internet use in enhancing the well-being of the elderly and its underlying mechanisms.The empirical findings demonstrate a significant positive correlation between Internet use and the sense of well-being among the elderly.Employing the instrumental variable"installation of broadband"and the 2SLS regression model to address selective bias in the sample,the results consistently affirm the beneficial impact of Internet use on the happiness of the elderly.Mediation effect analysis further reveals that both individual and collective social capital mediate the relationship between Internet use and the well-being of the elderly.
