本文介绍了中国家族小组研究中对认知能力的测量，特别是在语言技能、数学技能、记忆和定量推理方面。现有的CFPS认知测量可用于研究认知能力在许多感兴趣的实质性领域中的重要性。使用CFPS数据，我们表明，认知能力的衡量标准显然与关键的人口和社会特征有关，如年龄、性别、教育程度和户口身份。我们还说明了认知能力如何影响儿童的学习成绩和越轨行为，成年人的收入和政治资本，以及老年人的日常功能。
In this paper, we describe the measurement of cognitive ability in the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), especially for verbal skill, mathematical skill, memory, and quantitative reasoning. The available CFPS cognitive measurements can be useful for studies on the importance of cognitive ability in many substantive domains of interest. Using the CFPS data, we show that measures of cognitive ability are clearly related to key demographic and social characteristics, such as age, gender, education, and hukou status. We also illustrate how cognitive ability influences school performance and deviant behaviors among children, income and political capital among adults, and daily functioning among the elderly.
