我们研究了中国13个主要城市文化参与的社会经济决定因素，涵盖了高雅文化和流行文化的广泛指标。与以往高收入国家的研究一致，我们发现精英主义假说得到了强有力的支持：教育和收入增加了对广泛文化活动的参与。也有一些例外。有趣的是，我们还发现了一个U形的参与和城市发展之间的关系，免费和公共提供的文化。此外，教育的影响，在某种程度上也包括收入的影响，在较富裕的城市中较弱。这些发现有助于理解中国促进平等文化机会的关键政策目标。
We study the socioeconomic determinants of cultural participation in thirteen major Chinese cities for a broad range of indicators that cover highbrow and popular cultures. Consistent with previous studies from high-income countries, we find strong support for the elitism hypothesis: education and income increase participation in a broad range of cultural activities. There are also some exceptions. Interestingly, we also find a U-shaped relation between participation and city development for free and publicly supplied culture. Moreover, the impact of education, and to some extent also income, is weaker in richer cities. These findings contribute to understanding China's key policy objective of promoting equal access to culture.
