Abstract

Based on the data of China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) from 1989 to 2015, this paper analyzes the mobility and transmission mechanism of rural residents' intergenerational income. The OLS estimation of father and son yields a value of 0.549. The results of quantile regressions show that in rural China, the intergenerational income elasticity (IGE) is higher at the high end but lower at the low end. The human capital investment represented by the schooling years of the children is indeed an important factor explaining the intergenerational income mobility in the rural, and its contribution rate is 26.6%, much higher than the contribution of occupation. Further, the decomposition results indicate that education plays a more important role both at the low end and the high end, while occupation plays a more important role at the media quantile. Key words: Rural resident, intergenerational income mobility, transmission mechanism.

农村居民代际收入的流动性:以中国为例
基于1989 - 2015年中国健康与营养调查(CHNS)数据,分析农村居民代际收入的流动性及其传导机制。父亲和儿子的OLS估计值为0.549。分位数回归结果表明,中国农村的代际收入弹性(IGE)在高端较高,而在低端较低。以子女受教育年限为代表的人力资本投资确实是解释农村代际收入流动的重要因素,其贡献率为26.6%,远高于职业的贡献。此外,分解结果表明,教育在低端和高端都起着更重要的作用,而职业在媒体分位数上起着更重要的作用。关键词:农村居民;代际收入流动;传导机制。
