中国的户口制度是政府进行社会控制的主要工具，近年来经历了各种根本性的改革，越来越受到人们的关注。本研究考察了户籍制度创新与流动儿童认知和非认知发展的关系，这些认知和非认知发展对个体的终身发展至关重要。基于2013-2014年中国教育跟踪调查的2654名非本地户口子女的调查结果显示，期望公平进入本地高中的农民工学生的考试成绩和教育愿望明显高于同龄人。期望就读当地高中能改善农民工学生与教师的关系和与同学的社会适应。这些发现对解决流动儿童的教育挑战具有政策意义，并为中国实现社会公正和平等的户口制度改革提供了启示。
The Chinese Hukou system, a major tool for social control employed by the government, has undergone various fundamental reforms and has received increasing attention in recent years. This study investigates the relationship between Hukou policy innovations and migrant children's cognitive and non-cognitive outcomes, which are vital to the lifetime development of individuals. On the basis of 2654 children holding non-local Hukou from the 2013-2014 wave of the China Education Panel Survey, the results show that migrant students who expect to have fair access to local senior high schools have significantly higher test scores and higher educational aspirations than their counterparts. The expectation of attending a local senior high school improves migrant students' relationship with teachers and the social acclimation with classmates. These findings carry policy implications for addressing migrant children's educational challenges and shed light on China's reform of its Hukou system to achieve social justice and equality.
