关于生育力和幸福感的文献忽视了比较分析。我们使用 86 个国家的世界价值观调查数据来调查生育率/幸福感之间的关联。我们发现,在全球范围内,幸福感随着孩子数量的增加而降低。然而,这种关联会受到个人和背景因素的强烈影响。最重要的是,我们发现,在 40 岁以上,幸福感与生育率之间的关联从负向变为中性,再变为正向,并且在那些可能从代际向上转移中受益最多的人中这种关联最为强烈。此外,福利制度的分析表明,在公众对家庭支持度较高的国家,年轻人的生育率/幸福感负相关性最弱,而在老年赡养主要依靠家庭的国家,40岁以上的正相关性最强。总体而言,这些结果表明,孩子是对幸福的长期投资,并强调了生命周期阶段和背景因素在解释幸福/生育率关联方面的重要性。
The literature on fertility and happiness has neglected comparative analysis. we investigate the fertility/happiness association using data from the world values Surveys for 86 countries. we fnd that, globally, happiness decreases with the number of children. this association, however, is strongly modifed by individual and contextual factors. most importantly, we find that the association between happiness and fertility evolves from negative to neutral to positive above age 40, and is strongest among those who are likely to beneft most from upward intergenerational transfers. in addition, analyses by welfare regime show that the negative fertility/ happiness association for younger adults is weakest in countries with high public support for families, and the positive association above age 40 is strongest in countries where old‐age support depends mostly on the family. overall these results suggest that children are a long‐term investment in well‐being, and highlight the importance of the life‐cycle stage and contextual factors in explaining the happiness/fertility association.
