我的邻居有多幸福?模拟福祉的空间溢出效应
How happy are my neighbours? Modelling spatial spillover effects of well-being
摘要:
本文使用加拿大社区层面的主观生活满意度数据,研究了社区幸福感的空间相互依赖性和空间溢出效应。提出了效用的理论模型。使用空间计量经济学技术,我们发现,社区的效用,代理的主观生活满意度的措施,是受邻近社区的效用,以及后者的平均家庭收入和失业率。共同的文化特征和制度可以证明这种溢出效应是合理的。结果是强大的不同的二进制邻接空间权重矩阵和各种计量经济学模型。基于Moran’s I测试,还发现了生活满意度社区的高-高和低-低集群
英文摘要:
This article uses data of subjective Life Satisfaction aggregated to the community level in Canada and examines the spatial interdependencies and spatial spillovers of community happiness. A theoretical model of utility is presented. Using spatial econometric techniques, we find that the utility of community, proxied by subjective measures of life satisfaction, is affected both by the utility of neighbouring communities as well as by the latter's average household income and unemployment rate. Shared cultural traits and institutions may justify such spillovers. The results are robust to the different binary contiguity spatial weights matrices used and to the various econometric models. Clusters of both high-high and low-low in Life Satisfaction communities are also found based on the Moran's I test
