Abstract

The present study examined the social status of women in China by reviewing the levels and trends of objective and subjective socioeconomic status and gender role attitudes. We employed a hierarchical age–period–cohort analysis and used repeated cross‐sectional data from the 2010 to 2021 Chinese General Social Survey (N = 52,927), a nationwide probability survey. The study found that for both males and females, differences in age effects were more pronounced than period and cohort effects. Specifically, there were no significant gender differences in levels of education. However, women start at a lower level of occupational prestige and income than men. Particularly in late adulthood, the rate of decline in income is significantly faster for women than for adult men. Chinese women's gender role attitudes interact with their objective socioeconomic status. Subjectively, China's awareness and recognition of gender equality and women's rights and interests are increasing, but objective gender inequality still exists, and there are many challenges to be addressed.
中国妇女的社会地位:基于年龄、时期和队列效应的分析
本研究通过回顾客观和主观社会经济地位及性别角色态度的水平和趋势,考察了中国女性的社会地位。我们采用了年龄-时期-队列的层次分析法,并使用了 2010 年至 2021 年中国社会总体调查(N = 52,927 人)的重复横截面数据,这是一项全国性的概率调查。研究发现,对于男性和女性而言,年龄效应的差异比时期和队列效应更为明显。具体而言,教育水平没有明显的性别差异。但是,女性的职业声望和收入水平比男性低。特别是在成年后期,女性收入下降的速度明显快于成年男性。中国女性的性别角色观念与其客观的社会经济地位相互影响。从主观上看,中国对性别平等和妇女权益的认识和认可在不断提高,但客观上的性别不平等依然存在,还有许多挑战需要应对。
