心理健康与贫困和未来生活机会，如教育、技能、劳动力市场依附和社会功能，有着不可分割的联系。贫困可能导致心理健康状况恶化，从而减少机会并增加终身贫困的风险。现金转移方案是最常见的减贫战略之一，现已惠及中低收入国家的相当一部分人口。由于其为应对COVID-19大流行而迅速扩张，其最近变得更加重要。最近，有人建议，这些现金转移可能会改善青年的心理健康，打破生命关键时期的不利循环。在这里，我们提出了一个概念框架，描述了现金转移计划可以改善年轻人的心理健康和生活机会的潜在机制。此外，我们还探讨了行为经济学和认知心理学的理论如何用于更具体地针对这些机制，并优化现金转移对青年心理健康和生活机会的影响。在此基础上，我们确定了几条调查路线和行动，为未来的研究和政策。
Mental health is inextricably linked to both poverty and future life chances such as education, skills, labour market attachment and social function. Poverty can lead to poorer mental health, which reduces opportunities and increases the risk of lifetime poverty. Cash transfer programmes are one of the most common strategies to reduce poverty and now reach substantial proportions of populations living in low- and middle-income countries. Because of their rapid expansion in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, they have recently gained even more importance. Recently, there have been suggestions that these cash transfers might improve youth mental health, disrupting the cycle of disadvantage at a critical period of life. Here, we present a conceptual framework describing potential mechanisms by which cash transfer programmes could improve the mental health and life chances of young people. Furthermore, we explore how theories from behavioural economics and cognitive psychology could be used to more specifically target these mechanisms and optimise the impact of cash transfers on youth mental health and life chances. Based on this, we identify several lines of enquiry and action for future research and policy.
